4. Snake Plant
Snake Plant |
Dracaena trifasciata is a species of flowering plant in the Asparagaceae family, native to tropical West Africa from Nigeria east to the Congo. It is more commonly known as the Snake Plant, Saint George's Sword, Mother-in-Law's Tongue, and Viper Bowstring Hemp, among other names. Until 2017, it was known by the synonym Sansevieria trifasciata.
5. Weeping Fig
Weeping Fig |
Ficus Benjamina, commonly known as weeping fig, benjamin, or ficus, and often sold in stores as ficus, is a species of flowering plant in the Moraceae family, native to Asia and Australia. It is the official tree of Bangkok. The species is also naturalized in the West Indies and in the states of Florida and Arizona in the United States. In its area of origin, its berries are favored by certain birds, such as the superb fruit dove, the wompoo fruit dove, the rose-spotted fruit dove, the ornate fruit dove, the orange-bellied fruit dove, the imperial pigeon. of Torresian and the Imperial Violet-tailed Pigeon.
6. Orchid
Orchid |
Orchidaceae, commonly referred to as the orchid family, are a diverse and widespread family of flowering plants, with flowers often colorful and fragrant.
Along with the Asteraceae, they are one of the two largest families of flowering plants. The Orchidaceae have about 28,000 currently accepted species, distributed in about 763 genera. The determination of the largest family is still under debate, as the verified data on the members of these huge families is constantly evolving. Either way, the number of orchid species is almost equal to the number of bony fish, more than double the number of bird species, and about four times the number of mammal species.
The family comprises about 6-11% of all seed plants. The largest genera are Bulbophyllum (2,000 species), Epidendrum (1,500 species), Dendrobium (1,400 species), and Pleurothallis (1,000 species). It also includes Vanilla (the genus of vanilla), the type genus Orchis, and many commonly cultivated plants such as Phalaenopsis and Cattleya. In addition, since the introduction of tropical species into cultivation in the 19th century, horticulturalists have produced more than 100,000 hybrids and cultivars.
7. Spider Plant
Spider Plant |
Chlorophytum comosum, commonly referred to as spider plant but also known as spider ivy, ribbon plant (a name it shares with Dracaena sanderiana), and hen and chickens is a species of evergreen perennial flowering plant. It is native to tropical and southern Africa, but has naturalized in other parts of the world, including Western Australia. Chlorophytum comosum is easy to grow as a houseplant; variegated forms are the most popular.
8. Christmas Cactus
Christmas Cactus |
Schlumbergera is a small genus of cactus with six to nine species found in the coastal mountains of southeastern Brazil. These plants grow on trees or rocks in generally shady habitats with high humidity and can be very different in appearance from their desert cousins. Most Schlumbergera species have stems that resemble pads in the form of leaves connected to each other and flowers that appear from areolas at the joints and ends of the stems. Two species have cylindrical stems more similar to other cacti. Recent phylogenetic studies using DNA have led to the transfer of three species of the related genus Hatiora to Schlumbergera, although this change is not universally accepted.
The common names of these cacti generally refer to their flowering season. In the Northern Hemisphere, they are called Christmas Cacti, Thanksgiving Cacti, Crab Cacti, and Holiday Cacti. In Brazil, the genus is called Flor de Maio (May flower), reflecting the period in which they bloom in the southern hemisphere. Most popular houseplants are cultivars of Schlumbergera, rather than species, with white, pink, yellow, orange, red, or purple flowers. The Easter cactus or Pentecost cactus, until recently placed in the genus Hatiora, is also called a holiday cactus and has flowers in red, orange, pink, and white.
Cultivars of the Christmas cactus fall into two main groups:
- The Truncata group includes all cultivars whose characteristics are mainly derived from the species S. truncata: stem segments with sharp teeth; flowers held more or less horizontally, usually above the horizontal, the upper surface of which is different in shape from the lower surface (zygomorphic); and the pollen which is yellow. They typically bloom earlier than members of the Buckleyi group, and although common names are not applied consistently, can be distinguished as Thanksgiving cactus, crab cactus, or claw cacti.
- The Buckleyi group contains all cultivars with at least some characteristics clearly showing the inheritance of S. russelliana: stem segments with rounded and more symmetrical teeth; more or less symmetrical (regular) flowers hanging down below the horizontal; and the pollen which is pink. They usually bloom later than members of the Truncata group and are more likely to be called Christmas cacti.
9. Dumb Cane
Dumb Cane |
Dieffenbachia is a genus of tropical flowering plants in the family Araceae. It is native to the New World tropics, from Mexico and the West Indies to Argentina. Some species are widely grown as ornamentals, especially as houseplants, and have become naturalized on a few tropical islands.
Dieffenbachia is an erect-stemmed herbaceous perennial with simple, alternate leaves containing white spots and flecks, making it attractive as indoor foliage. Species in this genus are popular as houseplants due to their shade tolerance. Its English names, mute cane and mother-in-law's tongue (also used for Sansevieria species) refer to the poisoning effect of raphides, which can cause temporary inability to speak. Dieffenbachia was named by Heinrich Wilhelm Schott, director of the Botanical Gardens of Vienna, in honor of its head gardener Joseph Dieffenbach (1796-1863).
10. Chrysanthemum
Chrysanthemum |
Chrysanthemums, sometimes called chrysanthemums or chrysanthemums, are flowering plants of the genus Chrysanthemum of the Asteraceae family. They are native to East Asia and Northeastern Europe. Most of the species are native to East Asia, and the center of diversity is in China. There are countless horticultural varieties and cultivars.
