Kitchens often have high temperatures, constantly changing humidity and generating smoke and food odors. Therefore, if you want to place green trees in this area, you should prioritize trees that can withstand the light and temperature conditions in the house, and at the same time do not take up much space.
Spider plant, betel nut
Spider plants and betel plants are popular ornamental plants indoors, with relatively good adaptability to indirect light environments.
You can place the plant near windows, kitchen shelves or a ventilated location, avoid placing it right next to the stove because high temperatures, heat and grease can affect the plant.
Feng lu tree
Feng Lu is suitable for areas with good lighting and ventilation. If placed in the kitchen, you should choose a location near a window or a place with natural light instead of a closed, low-light area.
Regularly cutting off wilted leaves, withered flowers and cleaning the pot also helps limit mold, insects and keep the kitchen space clean.
Do not place the plant too close to the stove.
Although green plants can help the living space become closer to nature, plant pots should not be placed right next to gas stoves, electric stoves or areas that are often greasy and hot.
In addition, overly large pots can take up space, hinder cooking and make cleaning difficult. For the kitchen, small, compact, and easy-to-move pots are often more suitable.
Do not place too many aquatic plants or pots that need a large amount of water in a kitchen that already has high humidity. Stagnant water and prolonged moist soil can create conditions for mold and insects to grow.
In particular, the pot should be placed far from the food pre-processing area to prevent dirty soil, leaves or water from falling into the food. For families with young children or pets, it is also necessary to check the characteristics of each plant before bringing it into the house.
In general, choosing plants for the kitchen should be based on light, temperature, humidity, area and hygiene requirements, instead of feng shui or fortune beliefs.
