Tips for plant lovers: grow hanging houseplants correctly
Each plant species is characterized by different characteristics. The choice of plants should be based on the location for which they are intended. In order for your plants to thrive, you need to plant them correctly in the flower boxes. It works like this: first fill the boxes halfway with potting soil, then add a handful of sand and mix both well. Place the plant loosely in the potting soil and fill up the planter. After pressing lightly, you finally pour water well. For drooping flowers, remove brown leaves regularly and water the plants out of the sun and early in the morning.
Which plants are suitable for which location?
Need a sunny to semi-shady location: surfinia, goldilocks, hanging begonia, blue Mauritius, jasmine, snapdragon. It is important that they are always kept evenly moist and fertilized regularly. A semi-shady to shady location - fan flowers, fairy mirrors, tuberous begonias, hanging fuchsias and other hanging plants such as cacti (rush cactus) also do well on the sunny windowsill.
