Why choose natural indoor plants?
The benefits of indoor plants extend far beyond their aesthetic appeal. They offer a range of advantages that enrich your daily life:
- Air purification: Many plants act as natural filters, removing toxins and producing pure oxygen, which significantly improves the air quality inside your home.
- Improved mood: Studies have shown that interacting with nature reduces stress and anxiety, and promotes feelings of calm and happiness.
- Adding an aesthetic touch: Plants add a unique touch of elegance and life to any space, and complement various decor styles.
- Increased productivity and focus: In work environments, plants can contribute to improved focus and creativity.
Which plants would you choose for your home in Saudi Arabia?
We know that choosing the right plant can be confusing, especially with the wide variety available. Here are some of the best options suitable for indoor environments in Saudi Arabia that require reasonable care:
- Snake plant (Sansevieria): Also known as "tiger skin," it's the unstoppable queen of houseplants! It tolerates drought and low light, and effectively purifies the air. Ideal for beginners and for homes with low light.
- Zamia (ZZ Plant): Another super-hardy plant, perfect for those who forget to water! Its glossy, thick leaves add a modern touch, and it tolerates shade excellently.
- Pothos : A beautiful climber that adapts to different lighting conditions and can be hung or placed on shelves to add a touch of cascading greenery. Easy to care for and grows quickly.
- Heartleaf Philodendron: Similar to pothos in its ease of care, its heart-shaped leaves give it a special appeal. Ideal for adding a touch of lush greenery.
- Aloe Vera: Not only is it beautiful, but it is also a very useful plant with healing properties! It needs bright light and moderate watering.
- The rubber plant, with its large, glossy leaves, adds a dramatic and elegant touch to any room. It needs good but indirect light and regular watering.
- Gladiolus (Peace Lily): An elegant plant that produces beautiful white flowers and is considered a good indicator of air quality. It prefers medium light and consistently moist soil.
Golden tips for caring for your indoor plants in Saudi Arabia
To get the most out of your plants and ensure they thrive, follow these simple guidelines:
- Lighting: Find the right spot for each plant. Most houseplants prefer bright, indirect light. Avoid direct, scorching sunlight, which can burn the leaves.
- Watering: The secret is in not overwatering or underwatering. Check the soil moisture with your finger before watering. Water when the top layer of soil feels dry. Remember that most problems are caused by overwatering.
- Humidity: In the Kingdom's dry climate, some plants may benefit from increased humidity around them. You can mist the leaves with water periodically, or place a saucer of pebbles and water under the pot (making sure the pot does not touch the water directly).
- Feeding: Use a fertilizer specifically for indoor plants during the growing season (spring and summer) every 2-4 weeks, and reduce the amount in winter.
- Cleaning: Regularly wipe the dust off the plant leaves with a soft, damp cloth. This helps them absorb light better and breathe.
- Ventilation: Make sure there is good ventilation in the room to avoid the buildup of excess moisture that could lead to fungal problems.
