Green decoration of indoor foliage plants
(1) The significance and function of indoor green decoration
Indoor green decoration refers to the use of indoor foliage plants according to the characteristics of the indoor environment. Plant-based ornamental materials are used to beautify and decorate the utensils and places used in accordance with people's daily needs. This kind of beautification and decoration is based on the needs of people's material and spiritual life, and is designed, decorated and arranged in conjunction with the entire indoor environment, so that the indoor and outdoor areas can be integrated into one, embodying the combination of movement and stillness, so as to achieve a harmonious relationship between people, the indoor environment and nature. Harmonious and unified, it is an important breakthrough in traditional architectural decoration.
1. Decoration and beautification
Carry out greening arrangements according to indoor environmental conditions, not just for individual items and a certain part of the space, but for the entire environmental elements, integrating individual , local decorations are organized to achieve an overall beautifying effect. After artistic treatment, indoor green decoration makes the decorated object more charming in terms of image, color and other main aspects. For example, the rigid lines and sluggish shapes appearing in the indoor architectural structure appear agile through the embellishment of branches, leaves and flowers. The colors in decoration often affect people's impression of the environment. If there are no natural colors of branches, leaves and flowers in the room, no matter how beautiful the colors of the floor, walls and furniture are, there will still be a lack of vitality. Green leaves and flower branches can also be used as frames for doors and windows, so that the colors outside the window can be better reflected indoors, and unsightly parts of the indoor or window environment can be shielded by arranged plants. Therefore, the role of indoor foliage plants in indoor green decoration cannot be underestimated.
2. Improve the indoor living environment
People's life, work, study and rest are inseparable from the environment. The quality of the environment plays an important role in people's psychology and physiology. In addition to the necessary daily necessities and decorations, indoor decoration is indispensable with the breath of life and interest, so that people can enjoy the beauty of nature and feel comfortable.
In addition, the branches and leaves of indoor foliage plants can retain dust, absorb domestic waste gas, release and supplement oxygen that is beneficial to the human body, and reduce noise. At the same time, modern architectural decoration often uses various coatings that are harmful to people, and indoor foliage plants have a strong ability to absorb and adsorb such harmful substances, which can reduce man-made environmental pollution.
It can be said that the architectural decoration and arrangement of objects and appliances in modern families only solve the "hardware" decoration and decoration, while indoor green decoration is the "soft decoration" of modern families. This "soft decoration" is A necessary supplement to ordinary decoration arrangements.
3. Improve the structure of indoor space
In indoor environment beautification, green decoration can also play a certain role in the structure of space, such as according to people's lives. Rows of plants can be used to divide the indoor space into different areas for activities; vines climbing on the trellis can become a green screen to separate the space, while organically connecting different spaces. In addition, if there are difficulties in indoor rooms. You can choose appropriate indoor foliage plants to fill the corners (i.e. "dead corners") used to make up for the emptiness of the room, and also play a decorative role. The size and height of the plants themselves can be used to adjust the proportion of the space. Fully improve the utilization of limited indoor space
(2) Basic principles of indoor green decoration
1. Aesthetic principles
Beauty is the key to indoor green decoration. Important principle. If there is no aesthetic feeling, there is no decoration at all. Therefore, only by following the principles of aesthetics, through artistic design, clear themes, reasonable layout, clear layers, and coordination of shapes and colors can we achieve a fresh and clear artistic effect and greening. Arrangement is naturally connected with decorative art. In order to reflect the artistic beauty of indoor green decoration, it must adopt a certain form to make it reflect reasonable composition, color coordination and harmonious form.
(1) Composition. Reasonable composition
Composition is to combine objects of different shapes and colors into a harmonious landscape according to aesthetic concepts. Greening decoration requires reasonable composition (that is, beautiful composition). Composition is the key issue in decoration work. Two aspects must be paid attention to: one is the layout balance to maintain a sense of stability and stability; the other is the proportion to reflect the sense of reality and comfort.
The layout balance includes both symmetrical balance and asymmetrical balance. People are accustomed to symmetrical balance when decorating their homes, such as placing flowers of the same variety and size on both sides of the walkway and the venue, which appear regular and solemn. In contrast to symmetrical and balanced indoor greening. Asymmetrical balance of natural decoration, such as placing a larger plant on one side of the sofa in the living room, a shorter plant on the other side, and a hanging flower on the adjacent flower stand.
Although this arrangement is asymmetrical, it gives people a sense of coordination. Visually, they are of equal weight and can still be regarded as balanced. This kind of greening is arranged in a lively and elegant way.
Proportion refers to the shape and size of plants that should match the size and location of the place where they are placed. Indoor green decoration is like an artist creating a three-dimensional still life painting. If the proportions are appropriate, it will be realistic, otherwise it will be self-defeating. For example, large plants and large-leaved varieties can be used in large spaces to facilitate the coordination of plants and space; in small rooms or coffee tables, only short plants or small potted flowers and trees can be displayed, which will look elegant and decent.
By mastering the two basic points of layout balance and proportion, you can purposefully organize the composition of indoor greening decoration, realize the creation of decorative art, achieve clear intentions, novel composition, and reasonable organization, so that Although indoor foliage plants are in a small room, they can "appear endlessly and show off the endless spring."
(2) Color coordination
Color perception is the most popular form of general beauty. Color generally includes three basic elements: hue, lightness and chroma. Hue is the color, that is, the types and names of different colors; value is the lightness or darkness of the color; chroma is also called saturation, which is the standard color. Color is a very eye-catching and sensitive factor for human vision, and it plays an important role in the art of indoor greening and decoration.
The form of indoor green decoration should be determined according to the color condition of the room. For example, when using indoor foliage plants with deep leaves or brightly colored flowers for arrangement, the background color should be light or bright to highlight the three-dimensional effect of the arrangement; when the room has insufficient light and the background color is darker, it is better to use color Bright or light green, yellow and white light-colored flowers to achieve the ideal foil effect. The flowers on display should also complement the color of the furniture. For example, fresh and elegant flowers placed on counters and desks with darker backgrounds can increase the brightness of the flowers' colors and make people feel refreshed.
In addition, the color selection of indoor greening and decorative plants must be adjusted accordingly with seasonal changes and different layout uses.
(3) Harmony of form
The beauty and form of plants is the first characteristic of indoor green decoration, which will leave a deep impression on people. When decorating indoor greening, you should choose the appropriate display form and location based on the colors and shapes of various plants. At the same time, pay attention to the coordination with other supporting flower pots, appliances and accessories to achieve harmony and harmony. For example, hanging flowers should be placed on high flower stands, cabinets or hanging high places, allowing them to hang naturally; colorful plants should be placed on low stands so that you can appreciate their bright colors; upright and regular plants should be placed In the position where the line of sight is concentrated; in the middle position with a larger space, plump and symmetrical plants can be placed. If necessary, a group arrangement can be used to place tall plants together with other dwarf varieties to highlight the arrangement effect; etc.
2. Practical principles
Indoor greening decoration must meet the functional requirements and be practical. This is another important principle of indoor greening decoration. Therefore, it is necessary to achieve a high degree of unity between the aesthetic effect and practical effect of green decoration based on the nature and functional requirements of the greening layout site and proceeding from reality. For example, the study room is a place for reading and writing. It should be mainly decorated with delicate and elegant green plants to create a peaceful, elegant and quiet environment, so that people can look up during the study break and let green adjust their eyesight, relieve fatigue and induce calmness. It is pleasing to the eye, but it is not suitable to display brightly colored flowers.
3. Economic principles
In addition to paying attention to aesthetic and practical principles, indoor green decoration also requires that the method of green decoration be economically feasible and long-lasting. When designing and laying out, it is necessary to select the grade and style that meets the economic level based on the indoor structure, architectural decoration and indoor supporting equipment, so that the indoor "soft decoration" and "hard decoration" are harmonious. At the same time, corresponding indoor foliage plants and decorative objects should be selected according to the indoor environment characteristics and uses, so that the decorative effect can be maintained for a long time.
The above three principles are the basic requirements for indoor green decoration. They are closely related and should not be biased.
If a decorative design is beautiful but does not meet functional needs or is expensive, it is not considered a good decorative design plan.
(3) Selection of indoor greening and decorative plants
When carrying out greening decoration indoors, of course, you first need to consider some special ecological conditions of the small room.
The indoor space is relatively closed. In this space, an artificial microclimate environment is created. Its ecological conditions are special, that is, the indoor ambient light is weaker than that outdoors, and is mostly scattered light or artificial lighting, lacking direct sunlight; the room temperature is relatively stable, with less change than the outdoor temperature difference, and may be regulated by heating and cooling air conditioning; indoor air It is drier and the humidity is lower than outdoors; the indoor carbon dioxide concentration is slightly higher than that of the atmosphere, and the ventilation and breathability are poor.
As plant materials for indoor green decoration, in addition to some flowers and bonsai plants, a large number of indoor foliage plants are used. This is determined by the ecological characteristics of the environment and the characteristics of indoor foliage plants. Therefore, it is very important to understand the ornamental properties and ecological habits of these plant materials. Only by taking into account both aspects can aesthetics and ecology be unified.
The ornamental properties of plant materials include natural attributes and social attributes, but in most cases it mainly depends on the formal factors of natural attributes, as well as the resulting formal beauty, shape, color, posture, etc. . For example, indoor foliage plants are unique with their unique green leaves, large or mottled colors; vines and hanging plants are pleasing to the eye with their graceful and unrestrained lines and graceful phoenixes; cut flowers are known for their bright and vivid colors. Make the indoors splendid; bonsais are simple, elegant and full of charm. If plant material is classified from the aesthetic point of view of form, then it can be divided into several categories.
(1) Indoor foliage plants with natural beauty

These plants can create direct sensory awareness. Because color is one of the most sensitive factors, it can reflect changes in people's emotions, making people tranquil or uplifting. A large number of colorful foliage plants and flowering plants are rich in color and belong to this type.
(3) Indoor foliage plants with patterned beauty
The leaves of such plants can be arranged in a certain neat and regular form, thus showing the beauty of pattern. Such as Umbrella tree, Malabar millet, beautiful needle sunflower, duck foot tree, Guantang pineapple, monstera, etc.
(4) Indoor foliage plants with beautiful shapes
This type of plant has a certain graceful form or peculiar shape, which is a kind of beautiful attribute and is favored by people. Such as philodendron, loose-tailed sunflower, clustered money-tailed sunflower, monstera, unicorn tail, variable-leaf wood, etc.
(5) Indoor foliage plants with hanging beauty
These plants have hanging stems and leaves, which are natural and unrestrained, showing the beauty of graceful postures and changing lines. Such as spider plant, hanging bamboo plum, ivy, white powder rattan, asparagus, etc.
(6) Indoor foliage plants with beautiful climbing properties
These plants can rely on their aerial roots or tendrils and suckers to wrap around and adsorb on decorative objects, and cleverly interact with the adsorbed objects. Combined with the ground, they form a whole with different shapes. Such as golden kudzu, philodendron, ivy, staghorn fern, etc.
The above-mentioned indoor foliage plants with various forms of beauty can only exert a good decorative effect if they are coordinated in form with the interior decoration and the entire architectural environment.
If you consider the content factors of the social attributes of viewing, you often need to pay attention to the style and mood of the decoration. For example, when various binomial indoor foliage plants are used for indoor decoration, only in a specific indoor architectural environment can they be full of fresh, free and elegant artistic charm, so as to retain the traditional natural style while also being modern. There is a certain abstraction and pictorial beauty to art.
Another example is that bonsai can only show its connotation - the artistic characteristics and decorative effect of traditional Chinese culture and aesthetic taste - in Chinese-style interior decoration, or against the backdrop of mahogany shelves, antique shelves and traditional Chinese calligraphy and painting. When it is necessary to use a certain plant as the decorative theme of a building's interior layout or room, the best and easiest way is to use plants that reflect the theme, so that the aesthetic content of a certain social attribute has a stronger artistic appeal. .

However, how to carry out daily maintenance of potted plants after entering the house? Not many people know a little bit about caring for indoor houseplants. Here, the author briefly introduces some maintenance knowledge of indoor potted plants for reference.
Potted plants should not be overwatered: Since potted plants are placed indoors in a cool or slightly sunny location, overwatering potted plants will make the pot soil wet and cause the roots of the potted plants to suffocate. And the leaves rot, turn yellow and fall off. Therefore, the watering of potted plants placed indoors should adhere to the principle of "see dry and wet, water thoroughly", and do not water sporadically or overwater.
Potted plants should not be fertilized too much or not enough: If potted plants are not fertilized or under-fertilized for a long time, the leaves will turn yellow; if too much fertilization is applied, the potted plants will not be able to absorb it and the roots will be burned, and the inability to absorb water will also cause Causes leaves to turn yellow and fall. Generally, when fertilizing indoor potted plants, thin fertilizer should be applied once in late spring and once every other week in summer and autumn. Do not apply more concentrated fertilizer. If you apply too much fertilizer, you can dilute and wash away some of the fertilizer in the soil by watering more. Lack of fertilizer can lead to pot soil compaction, potted plants have yellow leaves, and branches are slender and yellow. Fertilizer should be applied immediately at this time, and it will be effective within a week.
Potted plants should not receive too much light or not enough light: It depends on the growth characteristics of potted plants. The light should not be too much or not enough.
Some sun-loving potted plants, such as pomegranates, azaleas, roses, etc., if placed in a place with too little light for a long time, will cause the plants to gradually weaken, have thin and yellow leaves, and no or few flowers.
Prevention and control of potted plant diseases and insect pests: Common pests and diseases of indoor potted plants mainly include aphids, spider mites, and leaf spot caused by infection by fungi and other viruses. The hazard is that it can easily cause partial necrosis of the leaves of potted plants or withering of the leaves, or even chlorosis of the entire plant. Therefore, indoor potted plants can only pay more attention to the management of water, fertilizer, and lighting. It is necessary to maintain indoor ventilation and timely spraying for prevention
