It’s simple to create a “garden” in a glass vase: spread a layer of gravel in the vase, then fine sand, humus, add a few eye-catching plants. It sounds simple, but the branches in that tiny “garden” will definitely urge you to find out where they come from, how they bloom and bloom.
Although they are known for their tenacious vitality, these “little friends” also require a certain amount of time to understand that not all plants can be placed next to each other and not all days are good for watering. Occasionally, put your work aside, spend time chatting with the branches and remember their “preferences”. Otherwise, the plants will leave you because they miss the cool drops of water on hot summer days.
When you truly love your garden, devote your heart to each leaf and bud, the young green buds will bring small joys, dispel fatigue and work pressure. Choose a lovely vase and start "gardening"!
Some tips to remember before "garden"
- Water-loving plants: lotus, green bamboo, bamboo...
- Plants that need moderate water: Jade lotus, Buddha lotus, purple-edged lotus, pink and white
- Does not like water: Sedum, dahlia, round-leaf lotus, starfish...
- When combining green plants (fittonia, areca palm, mini pine...) with succulents, they should be placed a little far apart.
- Do not place hydrophilic and hydrophobic plants next to each other. If placed in the same pot, water carefully to compensate for the water level.
- You should put a few layers of gravel under the vase to prevent waterlogging.
- The layer of soil and gravel should be about half the height of the vase to ensure aesthetics and the length of the tree roots.
