Houseplants

Allium is a genus of flowering plants that includes various species such as onions, garlic, leeks, and chives. These plants are commonly used in cooking for their distinct flavors and aromas. Allium plants are also known for their ornamental value in gardens due to their attractive flowers.

Ferns are an example of plants that do not rely on cotyledons for germination. Instead of seeds, ferns reproduce through spores, which do not contain cotyledons.

Yes, a house plant is a producer because it is capable of converting sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. This process allows the plant to produce its own food and serve as a primary source of energy in the ecosystem.

Yes, 15 degrees Celsius is equivalent to 59 degrees Fahrenheit, which is above the required temperature of 50 degrees Fahrenheit for Sue's houseplant. So, her room is warm enough to keep the plant healthy.

Some examples of creeping plants include ivy, creeping thyme, creeping jenny, and ground ivy. These plants typically spread horizontally along the ground or climb on surfaces using aerial roots or tendrils. They are often used as ground cover in gardens or landscapes.

Leaves are the main site for photosynthesis in plants, where they absorb sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to produce glucose (food) for the plant. They also help regulate water loss through transpiration, provide a surface area for gas exchange, and in some plants, store nutrients.

The houseplant that comes to mind is the Streptocarpus it's in the gesnariad group of plants. streptocarpus in an anual that need shade. snake plants, spaths or also know as peace lily are indoor house plants. you also have suclents also

Plants typically grow towards a window facing west because it provides the most sunlight during the afternoon. Plants need sunlight for photosynthesis, which is why they tend to lean towards windows to maximize their exposure to light.

Desert Plants adapt to their environment by trying to reduce the amount of water lost through the leaves. At some point long ago, the leaves of desert plants got thinner and thinner until they turned spiny. Desert plants are also very good at storing water because there is so little rain that falls in the desert which is why they have such fat trunks.

Dish detergent can help control some pests in houseplant soil by disrupting their waxy outer layer, but it may harm beneficial organisms in the soil. It's best to use targeted insecticidal soap or natural remedies like neem oil to effectively manage pests while protecting your plants and soil health.

Pale green leaves on houseplants can be a sign of nutrient deficiency, particularly nitrogen. Ensure you are providing the appropriate fertilizer for your plant and follow the instructions for application. Overwatering or poor lighting conditions can also contribute to pale leaves, so adjust your watering schedule and consider moving the plant to a brighter location if needed.

That's easy. plants are a huge benefit of our daily lifetime.Plants may look helpless and beautiful and their just there to make the world look good but think about how the world would look like if there were no plants and trees.plants give us oxygen to breath and there is a huge population of Australians that love fruit.Well if plants go there will be no fruit.There will be no shade or paper.trees give us paper so with out it there will be no paper.there will be graphity everywhere and all these buildings. The world would look boring.

answer. the point is with out plants we would not be here.

Spiders, you must be talking about Red Spider Mites if you can see them, especially if they are present all the time. Spider mites do not like moisture so what I recommend is to mist your plants with water or you can use a product called Neem II (neem oil with pyretherins-it's an excellent product) found in a hardware or nursery. This should be done three or four times a day if possible. Make sure your plants are not dry all the time, this will help you to control those little buggers. Also, wash off your plant with plain water and try to wash/rinse as many mites off as you can, of course there will be more hatching out withing five to ten days. You can every spray the Neen Oil on the top of the soil and around the main stem of the plant.

If you would like to use Miracle Gro for your houseplants, the correct dilution rate would be 1/2 teaspoon per gallon of water. You would use this mixture once every 7-14 days. Also, be sure to only apply the Miracle Gro to the soil and not to the leaves of houseplants. If it is applied to the foliage it can cause burn spots on the leaves

If so happen to be caught on the 1st or 2nd day you could be lucky, remove soil down to the roots and around it and becarefull not to rip into the roots. Replace the soil you removed with dry soil,gentle pack soil around the root ball. Allow to sit a day or two to allow the dry soil to suck the moisture from the root ball to recover breathability to the roots and move to a softer light to prevent heat stress or from drying out. Within two or three days water or when your roots have had a couple of days to breath,water again but slightly less then normal unless under sever heat conditions. Suggested humidity would be around 50-75% The key is to get the roots to breath again while keeping the plant from drying out or getting KOed while in recovery mode. If the main stalk is showing vigor,do not lose hope no matter how ugly your plant may look it should bounce back,give light and watch your waterings!! Do not shock the plant while it is in recovery.

Few plants grow in the waters of a swift-flowing stream because the water's movement makes it tough for the plants to attach to any surfaces. Often, plants are pushed to the tidal pools or the mouth of the streams.

Yes, flies can live in spider plants. The insects in question will seek out places for food sources, protection from environmental stresses and predatory encounters, and shelter both indoors and outside, with just about any plant serving as a likely option for meeting the above-mentioned requirements.

Yes, you can prune your goldfish plant to promote new growth and maintain its shape. Trim back any leggy or overgrown stems using clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears. Pruning should be done in spring or early summer for best results.

sometimes a potting mix gets too dry and repels water. try placing the pot in a bucket of water (keep the water level below the top of the pot) over night after which you can water it normally.

House plants can be put outside in Rhode Island once the threat of frost has passed, typically around late May or early June. It's important to gradually acclimate plants to outdoor conditions by starting with short periods of exposure and gradually increasing the time they spend outside to prevent shock.

The common houseplant you are referring to is likely a Hoya plant, also known as the "Heart Leaf" plant. It is known for its thick, heart-shaped leaves that have a velvety texture.

The adaptations for the Barrel Cactus are ideal for their survival. Barrel Cacti have a unique metabolism that works for their lifestyle. Their metabolism lets the stomata remain closed in the daytime, which is when the most water would be lost. It then opens at night releasing the oxygen while absorbing the carbon dioxide that is normally saved as malate. The Barrel Cacti has a spine that doubles as a protective shield against its predators.

Sugar provides a source of food for the cut flowers, helping them stay nourished and vibrant for longer. It also helps to encourage uronic acid production, which maintains the firmness and turgidity of the daffodil stems. Additionally, sugar can also act as a preservative by inhibiting the growth of bacteria in the water.

The terminal part of a flower's stamen is called the anther. It is where pollen grains are produced and released for pollination.

Yes but not without the nutrients and oxygen available in soil, there is a way to grow plants without soil, it is called Hydroponics. Hydroponically grown plants are grown in a solution of water containing the necessary plant nutrients.
