Houseplants that don't belong in the bedroom

Indoor lilies

These royal flowers can beautify any interior. But if you are growing lilies in your home, place the plant pot as far away from the bedroom as possible. Them characteristic property - active absorption of oxygen at night.

Blooming lily also has a pungent scent that can cause headaches. Therefore, if you do not want to wake up in the morning in a broken state, do not put the flower in the rest room.

Cactus

Another unfavorable plant for the bedroom, especially if you listen to Feng Shui philosophy recommendations... The thorns of cacti transmit the harmful energy of the Sha, therefore they are able to bring quarrels and discord into the house.

But if you love cacti and want to use them in the bedroom to protect the house from negative energy (sharp corners of buildings, factory chimneys), move them closer to the window and close the curtains at night.

There is a cactus that is forbidden to be placed in the bedroom: it is an erect trichocereus with long spines. Its strong-smelling flowers disrupt the nervous system.

Dieffenbachia

Spectacular plant with large variegated leaves native to South America. Suitable for connoisseurs of tropical themes, unpretentious, is growing rapidly.

The flower looks great in any interior, but is not recommended for the bedroom: a small drop of juice from the trunk can cause irritation, stinging and swelling if it gets into the eyes or on sensitive skin areas.

It is especially important to protect allergy sufferers, young children and pets... If you chew a leaf, you can experience serious poisoning up to anaphylactic shock. The same dangerous properties are possessed by spurge.

Oleander ordinary

Poisonous plant with bright pink inflorescences. It requires special care, but in gratitude it grows at a rapid pace, turning into a voluminous and elegant bush.

Unfortunately, the pronounced aroma makes a person dizzy, so putting him in the bedroom is dangerous. In addition, when ingested, oleander juice causes visual impairment.

All parts of the plant, including the roots, are poisonous, so gloves must be used when transplanting.

Monstera

A popular indoor liana that grows to an impressive size. This green beauty is distinguished by large patterned leaves. At first glance, they are smooth, but in fact, the surface of the leaf is covered with small needles that can cause allergies.

In monstera, juice is also poisonous: if it gets on the skin, it threatens burns, and in the eyes - burning and damage to the mucous membrane. If you chew the plant, poisoning is guaranteed, which is characterized by a burning sensation in the mouth and inflammation of the digestive system.

It is believed that the flower creates a negative aura, and the spreading leaves, similar to stretching arms, can be intimidating at night. Whether to believe the signs is up to you, but if there is a child or a pet in the apartment, we recommend that you refuse to grow this vine.

Adenium obese

A beautiful plant, which is increasingly found in apartments, is absolutely not suitable for the bedroom and is dangerous for people suffering from asthma.Adenium looks very impressive: on a thick "bottle" stem, reminiscent of a tree trunk, there are green leaves and large red flowers.

Its scenic look is captivating, but the toxicity of the poisonous leaves, stems, flowers and roots should stop you from breeding this plant. If the juice enters the bloodstream, it will cause intoxication.

The poison of adenium is still used by African tribes to poison arrowheads.

Geranium (pelargonium)

Experts are still arguing about whether to put a "grandmother's flower" in the bedroom. With all its positive characteristics (soothes the nervous system, repels insects, has an antibacterial effect), geranium is dangerous for allergy sufferers, animals and can provoke severe headaches during flowering.

If you cough, do not get enough sleep, or get up in the morning with a "heavy" head, remove the geranium from the bedroom. It is especially dangerous to keep several flower pots in the break room.

Choose safe, odorless, ornamental leafy plants for your bedroom. If you are afraid of flowers that emit strong Yang energy, close the plantings on the windowsill with a thick curtain.
