In modern design projects, flowerpots with flowers are used not only to decorate the living room and lounges, but also to decorate the bathroom. This idea has not yet gained mass recognition and is used only in premium projects, but florists recommend paying attention to the ability of plants to revive any space, even one that has no windows.

Despite the varietal variety of ornamental plants, experts recommend paying attention to the possibility of growing not all flowers in the bathroom, due to the fact that not all plants can be kept without sunlight and clean air. Flowers for the bathroom should have a positive attitude to high humidity and high temperatures, be undemanding to lighting and harmoniously combine with the interior of the room.

In order for green compositions not to bring inconvenience and harmoniously fit into the interior, the designers recommend that you be especially careful about their placement. Flower pots can be placed in the following places:

• on flat surfaces;
• on the walls;
• On the floor.

All tree varieties should be planted in large flowerpots and placed on the floor. The most comfortable places on the floor are the least used areas of the room, but it is better not to use the area near the washbasin and shower stall due to the likely contact with the leaves of soapy water and hot water.

Flowers on the walls look spectacular and beautiful. For their placement, you can use various types of shelves, which can be fixed at different levels and in any combination. For wall placement, florists recommend using all types of climbing plants, which are especially effective in decorating empty walls and corners of the room.

If it is impossible to install shelves designers recommend using all flat surfaces of cabinets and nightstands for placing flowers. Particular attention should be paid to the correct choice of colors, the size and appearance of which should be in harmony with the size of the furniture and its height.

Experts do not recommend installing flowerpots in the area of ​​plumbing fixtures, the use of which can provoke the fall of flower pots, as well as where excess moisture and drops will negatively affect the appearance of flowers. You can not put flowers near heating appliances, whose work leads to a decrease in air humidity.

Also It is strictly forbidden to put pots on washing machines. This prohibition is caused by the presence of vibrations during the operation of the device, which can provoke the fall of the flowerpots. And excess water during irrigation can get inside the device and lead to damage to household appliances.

In order for the plants to be healthy and beautiful, as well as to please the owners as long as possible, experts recommend paying special attention to observing the rules of care. The optimum temperature level is +22 degrees.

One of the most important parameters for flower growth is the presence of a sufficient level of illumination. Due to the fact that most of the bathrooms do not have windows, florists recommend additionally installing artificial light sources in the room, which can be both modern daytime lamps and special phytolamps. Plants cannot completely do without natural sunlight, for which it is necessary to regularly take out flowerpots outside.

Signs of insufficient light levels:

• pulling stems and leaves;
• small size of young leaf blades;
• dull color of the leaves;
• slow growth;
• lack of inflorescences;
• drying out of the lower foliage;
• shedding of flowers and unblown buds;
• lack of growth.

Particular attention must be paid to the irrigation system. Despite the high humidity in the room, plants need regular watering, but stagnant water should be avoided. To prevent decay of the root system, experts recommend using drainage materials and watering the flowers only after the soil is completely dry. Flowers in the bathroom always respond positively to spraying and warm showers. For planting plants such as bamboo, it is generally best to use a hydrogel.

To provide green compositions with all the essential nutrients, florists recommend not to forget about feeding. The most suitable type of fertilizer is granules. Nutrients in this particular form gradually enrich the soil with all the necessary trace elements, which has a positive effect on the growth of flowers.

To ensure air circulation and prevent air stagnation, the bathroom must be equipped with a powerful ventilation system.

Failure to follow the rules of care can provoke the following problems.

• White mold on the soil - excessive watering and stagnant water. Ways to eliminate the problem - stopping watering, treating the soil with drugs against fungal diseases.

• White bloom on leaves (powdery mildew) - high level of humidity and high temperature. Treatment - treatment of green compositions with special fungicides.

• Colorless spots - burns from detergents. The solution to the problem is to completely remove the damaged sheet plate.

• Brown spots - low temperature conditions in the room. To eliminate this problem, it is necessary to increase the temperature or select more cold-resistant varieties.

• Yellowing of leaf plates - lack of moisture and microelements.The way to eliminate the problem is to enrich the soil with micronutrients and adjust the frequency of soil moisture.

• Withering of plants and darkening of leaves - decay of the root system due to waterlogging of the soil. Ways to eliminate the problem - transplanting the flower into a new soil composition with the simultaneous removal of rotten parts of the root system.

Indoor flowers are invariable human companions, which have a positive effect on the well-being of people and the general atmosphere of the room.... Green compositions can be seen not only in the rooms and in the kitchen, but also in the bathroom. Ornamental plants can not only revive a given room, but also make its atmosphere as comfortable as possible for a person.
