How to get a plant?
First you need to find out:
- what conditions does he need;
- How often do you need to water;
- what to feed;
- whether he likes bright sun or not;
- adult size;
- is it not poisonous? Some plants may cause irritation or allergies.
You can buy the specimen you like at a flower shop, but it’s more interesting to grow it yourself from seeds or from cuttings.
A cutting is a small twig or leaf that can be cut from the mother plant and planted in loose soil. For increased humidity, you can cover the cuttings with a jar and spray them 2-3 times a day. After some time, roots will grow on the leaf or twig. Then the jar can be removed.
Seeds are sown in loose soil, watered, and covered with glass or film to maintain moisture. The glass is raised and ventilated several times a day. After the sprout appears, the glass is removed.
In summer, flowers can be planted on the balcony. Typically, annual plants are planted in balcony boxes; in one season they grow, bloom, produce seeds, and then die. They bloom all summer and delight the eye with bright colors.
3) Using this information, find the homeland of cacti and begonias in the photographs. Test yourself with. 88
The first photo shows an icy desert. Nothing grows there. On the second we see the usual hot desert. This is the homeland of cacti. The third photo shows a damp, dense forest - this is the homeland of begonia.
Homework
What's growing on the windowsill in your classroom?
Sansevieria, date palm, Chinese rose, and hippeastrum grow on the windowsill in our classroom.
Name a few indoor plants.
Monstera, cyclamen, asparagus, geranium, abutilon, kalanchoe.
Can a plant communicate with people?
Yes! If you observe an indoor flower, you can see this:
- if it is very dry, the leaves begin to wither and fall off so it asks for watering;
- if the leaves turn yellow, it means there is a lack of some nutrients and additional feeding is needed;
- leaves curl up and are attacked by pests. They can be washed off with soapy water;
- when the leaves are green, elastic, healthy, it means the flower is doing well.
Everyone likes to be loved. So talk to your green friend, treat him with love and attention, and he will definitely shine with happiness and look great.

Begonia Herbaceous plant with a height of 15 cm to 2 m. The shape, color and size of the leaves are very diverse. Most begonias bloom at home, but only the tuberous begonia has truly beautiful flowers. Plants of this genus require moderate watering and are afraid of direct sunlight through glass. Begonias reproduce by dividing the rhizomes, as well as by leaf cuttings. Hippeastrum Herbaceous deciduous bulbous plant up to 60 cm high. Hippeastrum is valued for its flowering. In March-April, even before the leaves bloom, a peduncle appears from the bulb, on which 3-4 large “gramophone” flowers of various colors open in turn. After flowering, leaves develop and fall in September-October. For the winter, the pot with the bulb is removed to a dark, cool place and stored there until March-April. Propagated by seeds and babies. Sansevieria is a herbaceous plant of dry habitats, capable of storing water reserves in succulent leaves. Plant height is from 15 cm to 1 m, depending on the type. One of the most common indoor plants, often called "pike tail". Sansevierias vary in shape - from small rosettes with short pointed leaves to tall narrow-leaved forms. Very varied in color. Sansevierias bloom - an inflorescence up to 30 cm high with small white flowers that exude an unusual aroma. Drops of sweet nectar form under each flower to attract insects. Sansevierias are very light-loving and grow poorly in low light; they do not tolerate excess moisture at all. It is recommended to completely dry the substrate in the pot where sansevieria grows, and only then water it. They reproduce by daughter rosettes. Uzambara violet (Saintpaulia) Violet is a symbol of the awakening of nature. The violet represents innocence, purity and modesty. This flower is held in high esteem by the French. Among indoor plants, violet (Saintpaulia) occupies a special place. A huge variety of varieties, lush and long flowering, ease of cultivation and propagation - all this makes it a favorite house plant. The story of the transformation of modest Cinderella into a princess began in 1893. Shortly before this, Baron Walter von Saint-Paul found an interesting plant in the forests of East Africa, at the foot of the Uzambara Mountains. Pale blue flowers with bright yellow anthers reminded the traveler of forest violets growing in his native Belgium. He collected the seeds and sent them to Europe to his father. The famous botanist Hermann Wendland described the plant as a new genus and named it Saintpaulia, in honor of the discoverer and his father. With all the variety of violets, the first place is occupied by large-flowered exhibition varieties. The flowers of these plants are amazing - they are huge, up to 7 cm in diameter. The shape of the flower can be double, semi-double, or not double. The petals, in turn, are wavy, folded, as if ironed, with frilly or lace edges. It is interesting to observe how, with increasing daylight hours, buds begin to form in February, and mass flowering occurs from March to May. From late August to November there is a second wave of flowering. Winter is a short rest for window plants, but with artificial light they bloom all year round. Cacti The homeland of cacti is America. Cacti grow very slowly. Thanks to their varied shape, pubescence, color, beautiful flowers, and bright fruits, they have gained great popularity. Cacti are grown in bright, dry, well-ventilated areas. In summer they water rarely, but abundantly, in winter - even less often. Cacti reproduce by seeds, stem and root cuttings, suckers and grafting. Calla, or calla lily, is native to South Africa. A herbaceous plant with a tuberous rhizome and a rosette of arrow-shaped leaves on long cuttings. Numerous small flowers without a perianth are collected in an inflorescence - a spadix, surrounded by a white sheath. The plant is shade-tolerant. Abundant watering and frequent spraying are necessary, especially during the flowering period. In winter, water moderately and keep in a cool room. Propagated by suckers formed on the pineal rhizome. Monstera, ficus The leaves of monstera and ficus are capable of trapping dust particles on their surface. The larger the leaf surface, the better. Therefore, the leaves of these plants should be wiped more often with a damp cloth. The presence of monstera and ficus in the room helps to enrich the air with ions, which has a very beneficial effect on human health. Tradescantia is a perennial herbaceous plant with creeping stems. It got its name in honor of the English gardener John Tradescant. There are many forms and varieties with different leaf colors. Author: Maksimova T. N.
