They allow you to admire bright saturated colors all year round, even in late autumn and winter, when the landscape outside the window is dull and monotonous. Such cultures have an undoubted advantage over bouquets in vases. - cut flowers wither quickly, and flowering indoor plants retain their decorative effect for a long time and do not die after flowering.

Most flowering plants have decorative foliage, therefore, even when blooming, they delight the eyes of households.

If you intend to have a green pet at home that could delight you with its flowering throughout the year, it should be borne in mind that such plants are very demanding on care and maintenance conditions than ordinary ornamental ones.

Some people need truly ideal conditions in order for them to produce flower stalks and produce abundant long-lasting flowering.

What are they?

Let us dwell in more detail on the description of the most common crops in indoor floriculture.

Geranium (Pelargonium)

This flower has a very pungent scent that repels insects and pathogens. In the same time prolonged stay near him can negatively affect the general well-being of a person and cause severe headaches... Therefore, you should not put geraniums in a bedroom or children's room, even though its flowers look very elegant and noble.

Geranium feels most comfortable in the sun from the western, as well as the eastern and southeastern sides. The plant prefers good lighting, but it is advisable to avoid direct rays. The place where pelargonium is located should be ventilated, the optimum temperature is 23-26 degrees, when heated to less than 10 degrees, this plant stops producing flower stalks. On hot summer days, geraniums require frequent watering; in winter, moisture should be minimized. In order for a flower to grow and develop well, it needs a medium-sized container. A mixture of leafy and soddy soil, peat, humus and river sand is suitable as a substrate.

Begonia

Translated from Latin, begonia is translated as "always blooming". She got this name for her ability to bloom 12 months a year. This flower has a rich color palette and decorative foliage. The plant requires full lighting, but the light must be diffused. Begonia grows best in dampness, but spraying the leaves is best avoided, as ugly brown spots appear on their surface from excess moisture. You can maintain optimum moisture levels simply by regularly adding liquid to the container tray. Watering should be carried out as the substrate dries up; in summer, irrigation should be quite abundant, and in winter, rare.

As a soil for replanting begonias, it is optimal to use black soil with the addition of peat.Such a plant reproduces vegetatively - by stems, cuttings and division of the rhizome.

Balsam

This is one of the most unpretentious indoor plants. The culture is light-loving, but does not withstand direct ultraviolet rays. Balsam prefers warmth, but not heat. For full growth and flowering, it needs a temperature of 15-26 degrees, as well as daily spraying and abundant irrigation.

The people call this culture "light". Indeed, if you look at this plant during flowering, it will give the impression of a bright fire - this effect is created by a combination of inflorescences of deep pink and scarlet flowers. Long bloom, as a rule, lasts from June to November. However, when creating a comfortable microclimate, it can produce flower stalks at other times.

Fuchsia

This is an incredibly beautiful plant that has rather unusual flowers - stamens rise above the lush petal skirts. Flowers can be white, red, pink, as well as blue, lilac, purple and blue. The plant is sun-loving, fuchsia feels best in rooms with diffused light and high humidity, in bright light the leaves become covered with brown spots. The plant is shade-tolerant, but in the dark, the stems are stretched, the flowers become rare and small. The optimum temperature for this plant will be 18-22 degrees.

In winter, fuchsias also do not cause any difficulties. - just put them in a dark, cool place and water them once a month. Fuchsia grows very quickly in pots, so the plant needs periodic pruning. In the process of growth, the flower needs to be transplanted into a larger container; it does not need any other additional transplants. The best substrate for such crops is a mixture of peat, compost soil, humus and river sand.

Abutilon

This is a native of tropical places, so a well-lit, ventilated place will become the most comfortable for him. The plant blooms best at a temperature of 15-17 degrees in the summer and 10-13 degrees in the winter. In the spring-summer period, abutilone needs abundant watering.

The culture responds favorably to feeding - from time to time it is necessary to fertilize it with nitrogen-containing compounds, superphosphate and potassium nitrate. As a substrate, it is best to use leafy soil, sod and rotted manure with the addition of river sand.

Hibiscus

Such a flower is popularly known as the "Chinese rose". It is a beautiful ornamental plant with a rich color palette. All year round, it is abundantly strewn with pink, snow-white and bright scarlet flowers. Hibiscus requires space and light; a comfortable temperature for it will be 16-18 degrees. In order for the plant to please those around with its flowering all year round, it should be periodically cut off, since the peduncles release exclusively young shoots.

Hibiscus needs frequent watering, as well as potash and phosphate fertilization. Once a year, the Chinese rose needs to be transplanted; the garden soil with the addition of river sand, as well as peat, will become the optimal soil mixture for it.

Kalanchoe

This is an ornamental houseplant with small flowers of yellowish, orange, pink or bright red color. The culture can bloom at any time of the year, but, unfortunately, flowering cannot be attributed to long-term. Kalanchoe is very demanding on the microclimate: cold air and dampness lead to the rapid death of the roots. That is why it is very important to maintain a moderate watering regime and monitor the dryness of the pallet.

For full-fledged growth and development, Kalanchoe requires bright, but at the same time, diffused light, ventilation and sufficient space. The optimal room temperature is considered to be 18-20 degrees.

Spathiphyllum

This is one of the most unusual plants, which differs in that it lacks stems - the leaves grow directly from the ground. It is an abundantly blooming culture, which is appreciated for its unpretentiousness and spectacular snow-white bloom.

Spathiphyllum blooms best at a temperature of 22-28 degrees and a humidity of 85-90%. The culture is extremely fearful of cold and drafts, it requires moderate irrigation and daily spraying from a spray bottle. The plant has received the name "female happiness" - according to popular belief, it blooms only in the house where peace, mutual understanding and love reign.

Violet

Without a doubt, the violet can be called the favorite of women. Even people who are far from floriculture do not remain indifferent to the beauty of its inflorescences. The petals truly amaze with the variety of their shapes from pale lilac to deep purple.

Violet prefers bright places, but dies under direct UV rays. She needs limited watering - 2-3 irrigations per month are enough. You need to use heated acidified water, water at the root so that moisture does not get on the leaf plates and flowers.

Cyclamen

This is a group of diverse flowers, each variety has its own distinctive characteristics. If you want to admire the rich colors all year round, then plant several varieties of this ornamental plant, for example, European and Persian, in a flower pot at once. The first will bloom from spring to autumn, and the second from autumn to spring.

This flower needs well-lit areas, a temperature of 15-23 degrees and moderate moisture.

Stimulation of flowering and care

In order for green pets to bloom profusely, they need discomfort. In this case, a self-preservation program is launched for them, this stimulates the process of active reproduction and leads to the appearance of new peduncles. In full comfort, such cultures do not make sense to breed. In order to achieve the result, flower growers use sharp temperature fluctuations, reduce heating to 5-8 degrees, and also increase daylight hours.

However, it also happens that all the conditions for flowering are created, but the buds still do not appear. Then flowering can be stimulated with the help of organic or synthetic preparations.

Phytohormones and biostimulants cope best with the task:

  • Tor Mach;
  • Bio Bloom;
  • Alg-A-Mic;
  • Ripen;
  • Fish- Mix.

The hormonal agents "Florigen" and "Vernalin" contribute to the active formation of ovaries. Many gardeners use folk remedies - sugar, banana, wood ash, castor oil and aloe juice.

Growing recommendations

In order for such flowers to grow and develop, as well as to delight household members with their lush flowering, they need full lighting - a lack of light is one of the most common reasons for the absence of peduncles. Daylight hours should be at least 10 hours, so additional lighting will be required in winter.

It is very important to choose the right soil mixture. A deficiency or, on the contrary, an excess of nutrition has a detrimental effect on flowering - when applying dressings, you must strictly follow the manufacturer's instructions on the packaging of the drug.

The flowering process is influenced by a number of factors. Among them:

  • high enough temperature;
  • high air humidity;
  • competent irrigation regime.

In conclusion, we note that now many people prefer to buy already flowering plants in stores. On the one hand, this allows you to enjoy the beauty without any effort, on the other hand, these plants were grown with the addition of a huge amount of special fertilizers.

After flowering, most of them wilt, and it is very difficult to achieve re-release of peduncles.
