Examples of the benefits and harms of orchids in the house, options in the bedroom and apartment

(1)

Disputes about whether it is worth keeping an orchid in the house divide supporters and opponents into two camps, almost equal in number. Some rightly argue that there are no absolutely safe plants. For example, any substance can cause an allergy, even if it occurs very rarely. But this is not a reason to give up beautiful orchids. After all, they do not harm most people. To which opponents respond with a warning not to take risks, and invite everyone to admire orchids in botanical gardens. Arguing this by the fact that among them there are poisonous and alkaloid specimens that cause headaches.

But other indoor plants can have similar qualities. For example, cyclamen rhizomes, dieffenbachia stems, pelargonium leaves, striped scarlet, etc.

To make the right decision when purchasing an orchid, you need to know the characteristics of its type and variety. The main thing is to take into account its impact on a person.

But, in addition to the biological qualities of the orchid, some gardeners are interested in the superstitions associated with it. Everyone decides for themselves whether to believe in them or not. In our article we will talk about the scientific features of the orchid and folk signs.

Is it possible to keep an orchid at home?

Orchid: positive
If you have carefully read about the negative effects an orchid can bring and how it is dangerous, and learned from our advice, then an orchid will only bring you benefits. An orchid is a talisman for a woman; it will help develop talents and engage in creativity. To ensure that the plant brings you only the best, learn to care for it properly. Do not allow the flower to wilt or become diseased. It will love its owner and you will have no conflicts in the future. An orchid can even restore youth and health, and most importantly, a good mood. A flower can help you drive negativity out of your home and attract warmth and joy into it. If an enemy shows up in your home, a person who wishes you harm, your orchid will drive him away. No, she will not crawl out of the pot and hit it with roots. But the person will suddenly feel a deterioration in their condition, dizziness, and nausea. Similar abilities are observed in other “our smaller brothers.” As you know, dogs and cats also very subtly sense negative emotions both of their owner and in relation to him.

Also, one of the unpleasant sensations that an orchid causes is anxiety syndrome. If you or your loved ones feel uneasy in a seemingly relaxed and light atmosphere, look at the windowsill. Perhaps the cause of your condition is blooming with beautiful flowers, innocently bending its petals in your direction?

The color of a flower has a huge impact on its properties. Yes, yes, color is one of the most important properties of a plant that can change the atmosphere in your home. The teachings of Feng Shui also tend to this opinion. A houseplant affects people and the atmosphere in the house in different ways.

What are the known signs about the color of an orchid?

The red and purple colors of the orchid help fight laziness. Have you decided to go on a diet? Do you exercise intensely? Or did you decide to declare war on bad habits? Red and purple flowers sharpen your willpower, increase it, and help you achieve your goal. As you know, all people tend to start a new life on Monday. Orchids of these colors will help you get rid of the old way of life.

Do you have financial problems or feel the need for career fulfillment? Perhaps your professional potential has not been fully developed? Yellow orchids will bring you good luck in this matter.

Activity and an active lifestyle are the key to success. If you feel like your energy has dried up, your work productivity is falling, apathy and depression are looming, try making friends with orange orchids. They will help you find a source of strength and inspiration.

A worse option is also possible: deep depression or prolonged melancholy. As you know, in the modern world it is really very difficult to remain calm and positive thinking. Daily difficulties and problems often unsettle us, this is especially true for the more gentle and sensitive half of humanity - women and girls. In addition, they are also more dependent on the body’s hormonal levels, so they are more likely to succumb to the negative influence of the external environment and, as a result, become depressed. If you or someone close to you begins to succumb to this condition, the world becomes darker, and the problems become more and more, be sure to place white or pink orchids in your room. Flowers in beige shades are also perfect. This will help you understand yourself, find a bright path and also decorate your interior with the most delicate and lovely orchid flowers.

Pink flowers will also help women revive lost femininity and charm, and young girls will develop these qualities in themselves.

But do not forget that your flowers will bring you pleasant moments only if they feel warmth, tenderness and care from you. Be kind to your pets and they will be kind to you.

Is it possible to grow an orchid at home and what signs are associated with it?

Despite our enlightened age, superstitions among people are still very common. They apply to everything, including ordinary indoor plants. This rare type of indoor flower is considered by people to be absolutely harmless and even useful.

Usually even the most innocent plant is accused of having the most dangerous properties for humans. Superstitions have not spared orchids either. But many of these signs have nothing to do with real life

Orchids have long been dubbed energy vampires. Is it so? After all, a healthy person, being next to an orchid, does not experience the slightest negative influence. Yes, and other indoor plants normally exist next to orchids. This attitude towards orchids did not appear by chance. Often, even very educated people consider orchids to be parasites.

In fact, there is not a single species of these flowers that lives off other plants.

They are just located on the trunks and branches of trees, clinging to the bark with their roots and not growing to it. They receive nutrients not from a living plant, but from water that flows down the bark during rain and washes their roots.

It is also believed that this flower has a negative effect on men. Allegedly, an orchid can change a man’s character, making him feminine, sophisticated and very soft. What can you say about this?

An orchid is a beautiful, exquisite and unusual flower. She amazes with her beauty.

But she is unlikely to be able to change a person’s character beyond recognition, to make a man look like a woman. Rather, by its appearance it will help to introduce a person to beauty, and this is not so bad.

Where is the best place to put an orchid at home?

There are many beautiful flowers. Not many of us know the place of a flower when purchasing it. But someone prepared this place in advance. Exactly for the orchid. But not for a cactus. Or geraniums. Even chrysanthemums. And still about the place.

What determines the choice of location?

A direct question. Does a lot depend on your desires? Assess the possibilities and environment. What options are there for an apartment or house? You will find many of them:

You want to see such a flower of unique beauty in every corner of your apartment or house;
And in the most visible place;
But they are not always free;
Or maybe not entirely suitable for the plant;
And for you they are so welcome in this place in the apartment.

And the search begins for a compromise of interests, where it is better to put it. Your personal and flower.

The necessary conditions

The orchid is not purchased and grown for her. And for you. And good conditions must be created for it. So that she makes you happy. And your friends. If you show it to them. And with good flowering, you will definitely do this.

For the flower, try to create conditions close to the climate of its habitat. But it's difficult. You will not create either the Cordillera or Africa at home. But we must strive for this. To achieve the desired flowering of your purchase:

Lighting: Bright, long-lasting light is essential for most species. But without direct sunlight hitting the plant;
It will be necessary to shade it with curtains and curtains;
Installing additional lighting will allow you not to worry about the lack of light.

They need a fairly high temperature - 24-26 degrees. And not lower than 15-17 degrees;
Humidity must also be combined with temperature. At elevated temperatures, high humidity allows the plant to develop and bloom well;
Proper watering and fertilizing. Taking into account the stages of plant development and seasons. Choose suitable methods and fertilizers. Remember about the simplest folk remedies (honey, garlic and others);
Carry out timely preventive treatments against diseases. And destroy the pests without delay or delay. Waste time and you will regret it!

What is best for a person?

The search for the best does not always end successfully. No matter how much we want this.

So we do not always arrange flowers in our apartment according to the rules. Or taking into account the knowledge and recommendations of specialists and amateurs. It’s not so rare that it can even be harmful.

But it's beautiful! Their daily contemplation only adds positive emotions:

The orchid does not leave anyone indifferent with its original appearance. Reminds me of whoever. And a butterfly, and a soaring bird. And a monkey. And insects. And even women's lips;
And also the aroma. Many people like it gentle and unobtrusive. After all, flowers with a strong aroma even cause headaches. There are no such things among orchids;
And often we don’t even know about their amazing properties. Useful for all of us. You need to know them.

Our psychology is simple:

Beautiful flowers. Are they really still helping?
How much they already cost us, but I don’t feel it. I really want to ask. Have you already felt it now? Don't you like the beauty of a flower?

Much depends not only on the properties of the plant. But it also depends on your ability to perceive and feel it. And not only from ability. But also from desire. Try to form positive thoughts. Those contemplating beautiful orchids should not be overwhelmed by negative emotions.

The contemplation of blooming orchids brings only positive emotions.

We can only summarize the centuries-old history of the development and cultivation of orchids:

If this plant were unacceptable to humans, it would disappear. And we forgot about him;
There is an orchid. She makes me happy. Delights. Surprising;
And not only in their places of growth. But also in those places where for many years they knew about it by hearsay;
Seeing an orchid these days, even for the first time, few people will be upset. Perhaps only because of the money spent on their acquisition.

Attention! It is imperative to ensure that children do not taste it. They have such habits

Especially if you have Cymbidium, Vanda, Phragmipedium in your collection.

The person becomes overly sensitive, irritable, prone to depression, and also tearful. That is why you should not place this plant in the bedroom. Orchid can provoke insomnia, depression, an inexplicable feeling of fear and emotional impotence.

Care instructions

Some time after the plant has been restored, buds will begin to appear. A wilted peduncle should be removed after the petals have fallen. If you cut the stems too early, new ones will be able to form only after six months.

During the dormant period, the flower is placed in a warm, not very lit place. After pruning, the orchid usually rests for two months.

When asked whether an orchid can be kept in the bedroom, scientists who study plants answer in the negative. This plant emits a specific odor that has a bad effect on the health of the sleeper and can also cause:

depression;
headache;
insomnia;
irritability.

Note! If the florist, even when he found out why you can’t keep an orchid in your bedroom, still wanted to do it, then it will look stylish and elegant on a bedside table or ottoman. But you will definitely need to buy a lamp for it, otherwise the orchid will wither from lack of sunny color

Every gardener decides for himself whether he can keep an orchid at home or not.

In any case, you need to take into account everything described above, since scientists do not take their conclusions out of thin air, but obtain them as a result of long and painstaking work

When buying an orchid, you need to understand how to care for and where to place this plant. If you keep a flower in the wrong place or care for it poorly, it may wither or not bloom.

Orchid looks stylish in any room

Although orchids need sunny color, you should not place them near a window where the sun shines from morning to evening, as this can destroy the flower. The optimal solution would be to place it on the western or eastern side of the house.

And if there is no other choice but to place the flower on the northern part of the apartment, then you will have to resort to artificial lighting so that the plant does not wither from lack of sunlight.

Important! The conditions for keeping orchids may vary depending on the variety. So, for example, in one place a light-loving vanda can feel comfortable, but a phalaenopsis can die from an excess of light

Air humidity

Air humidity should be no less than 60% and no higher than 90%. If such conditions cannot be maintained, you can use one trick: put expanded clay in a tray under the flowerpot and fill it with water.

Can it be kept at home?

The presence of an orchid in the house will add sophistication to the interior, fill the space with peace and harmony , and help the owners to activate additional qualities of life.
The energy of the plant cleanses the room well of negative energies. Protects from external enemies (they become uncomfortable when visiting, pain appears in the body, and they try to quickly retreat from this house). There is an opinion that only one orchid can grow in a house, so much is its “selfish character” manifested. In fact, the experience of many orchid growers has proven that this flower lives remarkably well when “collectively” propagated. Dozens of orchids can live and bloom together in one house.

Positive signs about the orchid

In addition to superstitions about the negative impact of epiphytes on humans, there are signs about orchids in the house that show them in a more rosy light.

Aura saturation

In India, there is a special attitude towards the orchid. Local residents believe that it cleanses the home of evil and drives away unkind thoughts and feelings. Keeping this flower in the house for them means maintaining a friendly family atmosphere, finding ways to mutual understanding and mutual respect between members of their family.

Impact on women

For women, keeping indoor flowers is, in principle, mandatory, and even more so orchids. This is a kind of amulet that protects health, both moral and physical, bringing inspiration, beauty, charm, femininity and other qualities necessary for every girl.

Orchid does not scare away men

By the way, there is a sign that occurred more likely due to twisting of facts than from real observations. They say that epiphytes can drive away guys, so the girl in whose house he grows risks being left alone.

All fans of orchids can calm down: this is not entirely true. As mentioned above, an epiphyte, with constant contact with a man, affects him as a woman, i.e. turns him into a pampered, perhaps even vulnerable, person, etc. But nothing more. The plant will not harm its owner, who loves and cares for it.

The right place for an orchid

It is quite logical to ask whether it is possible for married couples to keep orchids at home if the flower is not recommended for the male half, but for the female half it becomes a talisman. You can grow these beautiful flowers in every home, you just need to know where to put them.

For their location, you should avoid bedrooms, since at night the flower is especially active, like a vampire, and rooms where a man is most often.

Windows facing east or west are best. True, this is not connected with any beliefs, but with the specifics of cultivation. If you want your pet to bloom, provide it with enough sunny color. A room where the light is neither bright nor dim, but somewhat diffused, is a good choice.

For those girls who have not yet started a family, you can place epiphytes everywhere. The main thing is to look after them carefully and not ruin them, so your reverent attitude towards the plant will return to you a hundredfold.
