As the saying goes, "Eating without meat is better than living without bamboo". Bamboo has always been a favorite plant of many people. I remember that a bamboo grove was often planted in the yard of Bian Xiao, which was particularly artistic. But modern people live in many buildings, so it is impossible to grow bamboo in the yard as before. Today, I recommend five kinds of bamboo that can be planted in flowerpots. Let's see which one you like best.

1, Pteris

Eichhornia crassipes is a very popular large green plant. Many flower lovers will keep a pot in the living room. Its shape is very special. It looks like a feather on the tail of a phoenix, so it has such a beautiful name. Its branches are straight and hollow, its leaves grow downward, and it has the radian like a drooping tail. Many people like to cultivate it into bonsai, and some stones can make it very delicate and full of charm. Eichhornia crassipes doesn't need much light, so it is most suitable to be placed in a place with astigmatism at ordinary times to avoid excessive watering. Generally, it is necessary to wait for 3~5 cm of soil under the basin to dry before watering, but water should be sprayed frequently to maintain a high environmental humidity, which is suitable for fertile, loose and well-drained soil.

2, Buddha belly bamboo

Phyllostachys pubescens is the best among ornamental bamboos. Its plant type is elegant and generous, with short and deformed stems like Buddha's abdomen, delicate sickle-shaped leaves and green and bright all year round. The whole plant is quite ancient and unique, with high ornamental value. It has always been a leaf-watching potted plant that is deeply loved by Chinese people. Phyllostachys pubescens likes light, but it is afraid of exposure in summer, and likes humid growth environment. It keeps the soil moist enough every day, but remember that there can be no water in the basin, which is suitable for loose, fertile and well-drained acidic sandy soil.

3. Lily bamboo

Lily bamboo is a kind of bamboo that has only become popular in recent years. Its plant shape looks very elegant and beautiful. The leaves are emerald green with some mottled patterns on them. Although they are not flowering plants, they are also very beautiful. They look very fresh and bright at home and have a unique temperament. Lily bamboo doesn't like direct strong light, so try to put it in an environment with sufficient scattered light. Usually water in dry wetlands, and like loose, fertile and well-drained soil.

4.asparagus

Asparagus is elegant and beautiful. Although it is not bamboo, it is full of the charm of bamboo. It has lush leaves, slender stems and leaves, feathery leaves. For example, it is covered with green mountains, lush all year round, full of vitality and high ornamental value. It has always been called "elegant bamboo" and is considered to be the most Zen and scroll-like plant. Asparagus doesn't need much light, so it's best to maintain it in a place with astigmatism and good ventilation. Watering can follow the principle of seeing dry and seeing wet. After seeing the basin soil dry, water it once in time, and spray more water when the air is dry to increase the air humidity. Generally speaking, loose and fertile slightly acidic soil is suitable.

5, water bamboo

Small bamboo, also known as bamboo umbrella, was often seen by the pond when I was a child. This plant has tall and straight branches and green leaves, and the whole plant is very elegant in shape. Phyllostachys pubescens is an ornamental bamboo that can be protected by hydroponics or soil culture. It has good light resistance and heat resistance. It needs to maintain a warm and humid environment all the year round to grow and is afraid of cold. Attention should be paid to keep the soil moist in the basin and maintain a high environmental humidity.
