What to do if you are allergic to plants

Many people like to grow some flowers and plants. These plants are not only pleasing to the eye, some plants also have the function of purifying the air. Keeping them at home is not only for decoration, but also good for the body and makes people happy. However, some people are allergic to plants. If you are allergic to plants, it is best not to touch them. If the allergy occurs repeatedly, most of the time it is directly related to the human body's own immunity.

What are some common allergenic plants?

1. Dieffenbachia

The biggest impression that evergreen gives people is that it has relatively broad leaves, and its color can be described as bright and colorful, making it extremely ornamental. But when keeping it at home in winter, you need to pay attention to some things. For example, before winter every year, don't forget to change the pot once, and remove the "aged" roots or leaves. In winter, you must water frequently and keep the soil moist for a long time. In addition, it must be kept indoors. If you are a diligent flower grower, it would be better to scrub the leaves of the evergreen every once in a while.

2. Verbena

Verbena is an "imported" plant, mainly originating from Europe. The biggest difference between it and evergreen is that it does not have strong ornamental value, but the whole plant is used for medicinal purposes. However, nowadays many families have also started to grow this kind of flowers and plants, which is also unique. Verbena likes dryness and needs sufficient light, so even in winter, try to place it in a sunny place. Although it is not very demanding on the soil, keep the soil moist as much as possible because it is not drought-tolerant. This kind of verbena is most suitable for families with a garden. In a sense, verbena grown in the wild is better than that grown indoors.

3. Xiangzelan

The reason why the angelica became popular is not because of its appearance, but because it was rated as the world's most threatening "invasive species" and its reproductive ability is comparable to that of rats. As a spice plant, it is understandable that it is prone to allergies. In fact, you don’t need to worry much about growing agave at home in winter, because it has a very strong adaptability and can survive in both dry soil and soil lacking fertilizer (water and fertilize at appropriate times, but not too frequently). Even in the wild, lavender can grow vigorously in a small crack in the rocks. However, if the living environment is really in a remote and extremely cold area, it is best not to let the ambient temperature drop below 10℃. If you "freeze to death", it will not be worth it.
