The beautiful bougainvillea is popular with its local “discoverers” – the flower from the miraculous family has some surprises to offer with its colors, the abundance of flowers and the sometimes really unusual shapes of its flowers. However, such a triple flower only develops its full bloom if you really take the trouble to overwinter it…
The “magic plant” of the convertible rose is justifiably popular because such a miraculous change in the color of the flowers, such as the one that goes through it, is always fascinating. It also brings life to the garden and patio by attracting birds and butterflies. By the way, here you will find everything you need to know about caring…
While the real tulip trees, including the American and Chinese variants, are initially stingy with flowers, magnolia tulip trees enchant with their colored stands at an early stage. Both are reminiscent of tulips with their flowers, as the name suggests, and they also have similarly simple requirements in terms of location and care. Nevertheless, care should be…
Most of them grow outdoors, just not in Central Europe, but in tropical or subtropical regions. We are talking about the ever-popular houseplant. The name dragon tree is misleading. It is not a tree because the trunk does not grow in width. However, the plant has a palm-like, woody trunk. There are many different varieties. Most are valued for their brightly…
The best known of the wisteria is of course blue, but personally I prefer the white one. He looks somehow noble. Wisteria looks great, no question about it, but the plants are not without it. They often grow to such an extent that they have to be cut back several times (up to 5 times) a year. In…

On the other hand, the large purple inflorescences, which gave the tree its name, are great and unmistakable. Flowering is early in the year, in April or May. However, it takes 3 to 5 years…
The Schefflera arboricola is an unusual houseplant whose distinctive beauty has unfortunately been forgotten in recent years. Fast-growing, robust and easy to care for – these attributes make the tropical plant interesting not only for beginners. Smokers also benefit from the perennial ornamental plant’s ability to filter nicotine and other pollutants from the air and thus contribute…
The lucky chestnut, Pachira aquatica, which originally comes from Mexico and belongs to the mallow family, grows tree-like and impresses with its oval, thick leaves. The trunk is often braided for decorative purposes, but this makes the plant as a whole vulnerable to diseases. Overall, however, the lucky chestnut is very robust, which is quite forgiving of…
Ground cover roses, as I would like to call them again here, are often used for public greenery. There they have to survive without much attention. Breeders have created their own rose class especially for such locations and conditions, the members of which are particularly impressive in parks and on roadsides with their abundance of flowers, plant…
