If you have just recently decided to try your hand at plant growing, perhaps the first recommendation you should follow is to buy a plant that is not capricious.

Otherwise, as the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh said, the wrong choice can become the reason why the desire to grow indoor flowers disappears.

In addition, beginning gardeners can be advised not to touch a newly purchased plant for about five days.

The flower needs this time to rest, because it has just found itself in a new environment.

Don't rush into generous watering, instead moisten the soil in the pot little by little.

Now your primary task is to choose a suitable place for the "green pet". It should be where the temperature is comfortable for the plant and there are no drafts.

According to people who have been involved in plant growing for a long time, if you have purchased a flowering plant, you can leave it out of the sun. In other cases, the flowerpot should be kept away from light.

Finally, be prepared for the fact that all purchased pots are filled with light soil, so you will soon have to replant the flower.
