Not all plants need frequent watering and constant attention.
An expert of the online publication Belnovosti, agronomist, and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh listed flowers that are suitable for the most “forgetful” flower growers.
Haworthia
The necessary moisture accumulates in the leaves of the haworthia, so you won’t have to moisten the soil in the pot often – in winter it’s enough to do this once a month.
Chlorophytum
Like haworthia, chlorophytum does not need frequent watering in winter. You will have to take a watering can in your hands only when the soil substrate dries out to a quarter of the depth.
Crassula
The well-known money tree does not tolerate excess moisture. If in summer it is enough to water the fat woman once every 7-10 days, then in winter the frequency of watering is reduced by half.
Ficus elastica
In the winter months, it is enough to water the ficus once a week. Do not get carried away with spraying - 1-2 times per seven days is enough.
Overwatering threatens to cause the ficus to simply shed its leaves.
