My work study position involves the care of the department’s interior plants, so many of them will be featured here. The first section of Interiorscapes covered the Dracaena family and those of Sansevieria. Snake plants and Lucky Bamboo are easy care interior plants, once a few rules are learned and followed.
Those of the Draceana family are often sent to other parts of the country after being started in Florida nurseries. They tolerate neither direct sun not fluoride in their water. Actually, established Draceana prefer limited water during the winter, but will reward you by surviving in conditions one might not expect.
Cordyline terminalis, a member of the Draceana family, is a tropical and exotic specimen! If you are considering a new houseplant this year, take a look at this one!
Next week we are studying the Ficus, I never knew there are so many kinds. If anyone has comments or questions, please share them here!
Upcoming Changes to this Blog
I am thinking of adding a forum here and am also looking into a giveaway to feature on this blog! Please share with your friends and stay tuned!
Photos are current blooms in my garden, the four o’clocks are still putting on a show!
Love the orchid! I've still got a few Rose of Sharon blooms hanging on, but most are gone. I even had a small once pop up in the middle of my huge Japanese Quince in the backyard. A bird or other critter must have carried the seed there because it's not near any of my Rose of Sharon.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting, Marie Anne! Yes, I have the Rose of Sharon popping up all over, as well. We cut them back every year and they always return, a tough plant!
