Indoor fruit trees. Indoor fruit plants. Exotic carnivorous house plants

Fruit houseplants are exotic, beautiful, and not that difficult. And all because the atmosphere that is maintained in city apartments all year round suits these southern guests.
Many fruit houseplants not only bloom beautifully and really bear fruit, but also spread a pleasant aroma.

In a room you can successfully grow citrus fruits, pineapples, bananas, avocados, coffee and tea trees. But the best plants with a guarantee of harvest, and by the way, the most spectacular in appearance, are lemon, orange, avocado, pineapple, pomegranate and fig. They will definitely “succeed” with you, and together they will provide you with a varied “picture” of your indoor garden.


Indoor lemon is represented by dwarf varieties that are guaranteed to bear fruit in the apartment. In a year, you can get 10 - 20 fruits from one tree. The fruits are very bright, and the whole tree, including both leaves and flowers, is extremely fragrant. Fruits appear 3-5 years after planting. Indoor lemon is good because it does not have a dormant period, and you can see both flowers and fruits on the tree at the same time. Lemon loves light and warmth - he is also a southern "guest". But the heat is not aggressive, so it is better to cover the battery with a cotton cloth. In winter, the lemon can be additionally illuminated with special fitolamps. You will get a fruit-bearing tree faster if you propagate a lemon with cuttings.

Pineapple is very easy to grow. To do this, cut off the top with leaves from the pineapple fruit and root it in a mixture of peat and sand under a plastic bag. Then the rooted plant must be transplanted into the soil, consisting of leaf humus, soddy soil and sand. Pineapple needs a big pot - only then can it be fruitful. The optimum temperature for it is 25 degrees, and at the same time it must be periodically sprayed.


Indoor orange is also a dwarf variety, and according to growing conditions it is close to lemon. There are only some differences - he does not really like direct sunlight, so it is better not to put it directly in front of a sunny window. He also loves moisture very much - it must be sprayed in the warm season, but in winter - only watered. In order for an orange to have a beautiful shape, it needs to be trimmed, it has a tendency to grow disproportionately. With fruits, it is somewhat more complicated than with a lemon - in order to get fruits, an orange tree must be grafted from another, already bearing fruit.


Indoor pomegranate is very decorative. The fruits, respectively, are also dwarf, and in order to get them, it is better to pollinate the flowers manually with a brush. The tree grows up to 1 m tall. In flowering, it is not inferior to the most beautiful indoor flowers. Light and heat (23 - 25 degrees) are his favorite conditions, he does not need special humidity. It is best propagated by cuttings, but can also be grown from seeds. Just in this case, you have to wait longer for fruiting.


Avocado is quite an affordable exotic, and it is very easy to grow from seed. The avocado has a large seed, which must be peeled before planting, and stuck with a blunt end into the ground, and then pulled over a plastic bag. Avocado is a large plant, really a tree, and with expressive foliage. But you are unlikely to wait for fruiting in a natural way. To do this, you need to graft a tree with a cutting from an already fruiting avocado, and then - harvest.


The figs will be guaranteed to bear fruit in the room, and will begin fruiting as early as the first year. The figs are rooted with a sprig, which must have at least 3 buds, and this is done in the spring. In addition, fig seedlings can be found on sale. The conditions for caring for figs are the same as for citrus fruits, but there is one major difference: this is a deciduous tree. It sheds leaves around October, and then it needs to provide a dormant period for two months. This is not difficult: you need to put it in the coolest place in the apartment, and tighten it with a dark cloth (for this you need to build a kind of frame around the plant, on which the fabric will be stretched). If the cottage has a basement, you can transport the plant there. Rarely watered during this period. Then new buds will begin to appear at the tree, and it is again put on the windowsill.


You can organize your indoor orchard garden in different ways, but in any case, the plants in containers need to be grouped in one place in the room, arranged beautifully: higher ones in the background, lower ones in the foreground, and alternate them so that they are nearby as can be more different in appearance plants. In the selected corner of the room, you can put separate colored ceramic tiles, and put pots on them, or put beautiful light stones between the pots - large pebbles, or large shells. Be sure to take care of the colored containers for fruit plants - for them it is best to choose ceramic containers. Mediterranean-style pots are especially suitable for citrus fruits.

Every enthusiastic florist dreams of adding to his collection, especially when it comes to exotic indoor plants. Unusual specimens are sought in nurseries and greenhouses, brought from hot countries, exchanged and sold on forums. Every collector of domestic representatives of the flora must have his own wish list of rare plants.

What houseplants are most often the object of desire for flower growers? Let's find out. And let's start in an unusual way - with the most common among the unusual, pardon the tautology, plants.

exotic fruit house plants

At the end of the list are fruit exotics, the popularity and distribution of which as indoor crops is growing year by year. This is not surprising: who would refuse delicious fruits grown at home. In addition, many of these plants look great - delight the owners with thick green foliage and bright large flowers.

- a tree-like shrub growing in southern countries with a dry climate has taken root on our window sills. Not so long ago, breeders received varieties that differ in miniature size and, at the same time, are quite capable of bearing fruit. Although the main advantage of indoor pomegranate is magnificent flowers, with a little bit of effort, the grower will be able to enjoy fruits that are not inferior in taste to purchased ones.

homemade banana. Yes, yes, a banana can be grown in a room. And what's so surprising, in fact, a banana is a grass, only very tall. There are even several types of indoor banana - decorative and edible. Decorative ones are distinguished by large beautiful leaves, and edible ones, as the name implies, have tasty fruits that are indistinguishable from store-bought ones.

A pineapple, contained in the apartment, is no worse than purchased. A little "witchcraft" (for indoor pineapple to bloom and bear fruit, it is recommended to fumigate it with smoke) and the exotic fruit will ripen right in your living room. And planting material can be taken by cutting off a leaf rosette from an eaten fruit.

Date fruit- a plant not very suitable for the home. Too high (an adult palm tree reaches two meters) and capricious (prefers year-round coolness). But do difficulties stop enthusiastic flower growers? Of course, dates are found in our homes much less frequently than, for example, lemons, but there are still examples of successful cultivation of this exotic fruit.

Olive. Do not be surprised, indoor olive tree also exists. Moreover, several varieties of evergreen trees are adapted for room conditions at once. And given that the olive is not only fruitful, but also a very beautiful plant, we can assume that over time it will become even more popular.

homemade feijoa does not please with diversity - only one species is acclimatized to room conditions. Yes, and that requires increased attention: high humidity, a large amount of light. In addition, do not forget that for successful pollination, two plants or special, self-pollinating varieties are needed. But if you already managed to get the fruits of indoor feijoa, we can assume that the exam in flower growing skills has been passed.

Needless to say, what kind of fruit exotics do not try to grow the Russians. Rambutan, mango, medlar, avocado - you can't list everything. These experiments are not always successful: some specimens simply do not grow, others refuse to bloom and bear fruit. However, our people do not give up and manage to plant entire plantations on the windowsills.

Indoor plants with unusual leaves

Next in line are unusual and rare house plants that do not carry any applied function, but simply please the owner's eye. Conventionally, they can be divided into decorative and deciduous and flowering. Let's start with decorative foliage.

Bocarnea (nolina), or, as it is popularly called, the bottle tree, is good not only for its long curled leaves, reminiscent of the curls of an African beauty. The stem thickening towards the bottom, similar to a drinking vessel, also gives originality to the plant. This form was formed because in the lower part of the trunk nolina stores moisture, which is so rare in its homeland.

A whimsical beauty from tropical forests, stands out with luxurious leaves, oval or elongated. And the main decoration of the leaves is unusual multi-color patterns: silvery paired stripes on a dark green background in Calathea ornata, light green spots and green veins in Calathea wonderful, velvety surface and dark red color of the leaf plate in Calathea Varshevich.

Mimosa bashful unusual, at first glance it does not differ - bipinnate leaves are also found in other plants. But one has only to touch the leaf, as it “shyly” folds. Scientists still do not know what this phenomenon is connected with, and flower growers are happy to grow an interesting flower at home.

If a mimosa twists its leaves when touched, then oxalis, or triangular acid, folds leaves at night. In the morning, as the sun rises, they turn wide again, welcoming the first rays of the sun. For such an unusual ability, the plant was nicknamed "Good morning" by the people. The color of the leaves is also outstanding - rich eggplant or bright green with a purple center.

Caladium, on the contrary, is not ashamed of anyone, but proudly unfolds its luxurious leaves. The heart-shaped leaf blade is not too rare, but its patterns and colors are amazing: white, red, pink, purple, green, silver. Of course, most of them are the merit of botanical breeders who are breeding new varieties of caladium. However, because of this, a luxurious tropical plant does not cease to be less wonderful.

The variety of shades is not amazing, its leaves are painted in standard green. But on the other hand, their shape, combined with a long stem, reminiscent of a mini-palm tree, attracts many home plant lovers. And if you consider that several such stems grow from the root at once, it turns out that cyperus looks like a whole bunch of palm trees.

Beautiful flowering home exotics

Beautifully flowering house plants delight flower growers with magnificent flowers that bloom at any time of the year. Even if there is a cold winter or dank autumn outside, the bright colors of the petals will remind you of the sun and summer.

sprekelia- a bulbous plant that blooms in spring. Spreckelia leaves are unremarkable, but bright red flowers cannot be confused with any other. Six elongated petals, three on the bottom and three on top, resemble an unusual orchid.

Flowers lashenalia can't be called normal. Similar to long multi-colored tubules, they are collected in thick brushes on the peduncle. Red, yellow, orange petals blaze against bright green foliage. Lachenalia is a relative of the hyacinth, blooming, depending on the species, in autumn, winter or early spring.

Large flowers surprise even experienced flower growers. Fleshy pubescent flowers of golden, pink, yellow, purple hue, with or without a pattern, look like an exotic sea creature. True, not everyone wants to grow this miracle of nature at home - the aroma of slipway resembles the smell of rotten meat.

Tuberose, on the contrary, smells so good that it is used to compose perfume compositions. Even in the last century, the plant was so popular that it was impossible to call it unusual. But time has passed and tuberoses have become quite rare. It is a pity, because, in addition to the smell, snow-white flowers are of amazing beauty.

Tillandsia blue amazes not so much with the unusualness of the flowers as with the original shape of the bract. However, the bracts of the plant are often confused with the flowers themselves. The flat wide herringbone-shaped bract is painted in a delicate lavender color, and the petals of the blue tillandsia, as the name implies, have a bluish tint.

streptocarpus- not so much exotic as a very beautiful flower. Unusual shades (white, blue, blue, pink, yellow) and intricate patterns on the petals make streptocarpus flowers look like bright tropical butterflies. Of course, the vast majority of all this splendor is the result of the work of breeders. But this does not detract from the beauty of a magnificent flower.

unusual succulents

Succulent plants deserve a separate section. Due to the harsh living conditions (arid climate), they have adapted to accumulate water in various parts, significantly modifying them. That is why cacti have a thick spherical trunk, and aloe has juicy fleshy leaves. Let's take a closer look at the most unusual inhabitants of the desert.

Let's start with perhaps lithops. These unique plants resemble multi-colored pebbles, for which they were nicknamed "living stones" by the people. In fused thick sheets, lithops store moisture in the rainy season, gradually spending it in the dry season. Not only the leaves of these succulents are unusual. Flowers look no less exotic: large, bright with a large number of long narrow petals.

Ariocarpus, or rather one of its species (Ariocarpus cracked) - a cactus devoid of thorns. And this is his first singularity. The second is very slow growth. It takes about fifty years for a cactus to reach a decimeter in diameter. Well, the third is a thick fleshy root, tightly intertwined with each other. All this allowed the exotic succulent to grow in places where other representatives of the flora are almost never found - in crevices of rocky rocks and cliffs.

Rawley the godson looks like a curtain of round green beads strung on a thin stem. Perhaps it is the ragwort that deserves to head the hit parade of the most unusual house plants. The exotic succulent is native to the deserts of Namibia. To survive in such extreme conditions, the leaves acquired such a strange shape. A supply of water is hidden in the balls, helping the plant out during a drought.

Astrophytum jellyfish head was recently opened in 2002. Because of its bizarre appearance, this cactus was originally distinguished into a separate genus, and only after some time scientists ranked it among the astrophytums. Many thick long stems emanating from one root really resemble snakes on the head of the monstrous Gorgon Medusa.

Separately, Brazilian forest cacti living on trees can be distinguished. Their unpretentiousness and spectacular appearance won the hearts of many flower growers around the world.

For example, an epiphytic cactus ripsalis even a novice florist can grow, and some of the types of succulents can be attributed to the most exotic home plants. The stems of Lindbergh ripsalis, knobby, fluffy, Barchel look like thin sticks, branching in different directions and decorated with showy flowers. The shoots of ripsalis Roussel resemble the stems of the well-known Decembrist, but with one difference - after flowering, bright pink berries appear on their side faces, giving the plant an unusual, bizarre look.

hatiora, another representative of forest cacti, is similar to seaweed that appeared on land by chance. Thin, rod-shaped shoots form a thick cap, decorated, depending on the type of succulent, with flowers of various shades: yellow, pink, white, red.

Exotic carnivorous house plants

Carnivorous plants constitute a separate group of domestic exotics. Not every indoor flower lover will decide to have at least one of them. Firstly, it is quite difficult to keep such representatives of the flora: as a rule, very high humidity is required. And secondly, many carnivorous plants have an unpleasant odor that attracts insect prey. And finally, the aesthetic component - not everyone will like to watch how a predator destroys its prey.

Sundews- These are insectivorous perennial herbs, many species of which are adapted for growing indoors. On the leaves of sundew, there are thin hairs, at the end of which a drop of sweet sticky liquid appears. It is this liquid that attracts the unsuspecting insect. But as soon as the victim decides to feast on delicious syrup, the hairs will entangle him, and the leaf will close, leaving no chance for the stupid bug to get out. Because of the drops, sundew is poetically called "Solar Dew", "King's Eyes" or "God's Dew".

Dionea, better known as the Venus flytrap, also belongs to the carnivorous Rosyankovye family. To catch insects, the plant uses trap leaves, which are opened in the normal state and quickly slam shut as soon as the victim sits down to rest. The leaves of the Venus flytrap are very unusual - two-colored (red on one side and green on the other), with spikes along the edges. The bright color attracts gaping insects, and the thorns prevent them from getting out after the leaf closes. In order not to kill pollinating insects useful for the plant, the dionea flower is located on a very long stem, remote from the leaves.

Nepenthes(or pitcher) lures the victim not with the help of leaves, but with the help of long tubular flowers, similar to earthenware vessels. The insect flies inside the flower hoping to find sweet nectar at the bottom of the jug, but it can no longer get out and drowns in the liquid that has accumulated at the bottom. It is very difficult to grow nepenthes in an apartment - a predatory plant does not tolerate dry warm air, therefore only one species found in stores is suitable for home cultivation, namely, winged nepenthes.

Main difference sarracenia- a long twisted leaf in the form of a funnel, at the bottom of which there is a liquid for digesting insects, and on the inner walls there are hairs that prevent the victim from getting out. In addition to the shape, the color of the trap leaf is also unusual - green, red, purple with a pattern of translucent veins. Sarracenia was very popular in Russia before the revolution - rich gentlemen were happy to grow an overseas miracle in their homes. Unfortunately, subsequently, many collections were destroyed, and only recently this exotic predatory flower has begun to spread again as an indoor culture.

The time has come for planting, the migration of seedlings from the windowsill to the garden and painstaking worries about the future harvest. Fresh, without unnecessary additives, fruits delight much more than purchased ones. And for those who do not have their own plot, website advises not to be upset, but to try to grow fruits directly from the seeds at home or even at work.

Of course, the fruits will have to wait, and in some cases for more than one year. However, growing fruit is a good anti-stress, as well as an occasion to get closer to colleagues.

Citrus

Citrus fruits, which include lemon, tangerine, orange, grapefruit, etc., have a rich aroma and can be experimented with almost all year round. The seeds for sowing must be fresh. Planting them is quite simple: we wash the seeds and plant them in a moistened mixture of garden soil, peat and river sand or special soil for citrus fruits. It is best to immediately plant each bone in a separate pot or cup.

It is very important to provide the plants with sufficient lighting, but protect them from the midday sun, as well as dry air. In addition, in winter it is necessary to keep citrus fruits at a temperature of 12-16 degrees.

Date fruit

Even from the seed of a dried date, you can grow a palm tree. Before planting, it is better to pre-soak for a few days. Plant it in a mixture of peat and sand and don't forget to moisten it with a spray bottle every 2 days. In about a month, the future palm tree should sprout. Like citrus fruits, dates require plenty of light and a cool winter.

feijoa

The seeds of this exotic plant should be selected from a ripe and soft fruit. If the purchased feijoa is not yet ripe, you can put it in a warm place and wait a few days. Seeds should be washed from the pulp and dried. Without digging deep, we put the seeds in the ground with sand.

The plant can sprout and germinate fairly quickly. Therefore, do not forget to plant the sprouts, pinch the main root and transplant, together with the old soil, into a larger pot.

figs

To grow a non-fig tree, you need to do the same as with feijoa seeds: rinse, dry and put shallow in moist soil. Sprinkle the soil a little with sand and cover with a film. For figs, you should find a warmer place. The first shoots will be in about 3 weeks, if you regularly moisten the ground and ventilate the room. In the warm season, keep the temperature at least 20 degrees, and in winter - no higher than 14 degrees.

passion fruit

If you plant passion fruit seeds, most likely, not a fruitful tree will grow, but a liana that will delight you with its luxurious flowering. However, who knows, maybe you will be able to achieve a juicy fruit at home. Passion fruit loves everything that tropical plants like: bright light, plenty of air, warmth and high humidity.

Avocado

There are two ways to grow this storehouse of vitamins from the bone. In the first case, we remove the shell from the bone, plant it with a wide side to a depth of 2-3 cm, so that the tip protrudes above the surface. The second method is called open: we leave the shell and drill 3 small holes at an angle of 120 degrees at the level of the middle of the bone. 3 matches are inserted into them, which will be supports along the edges of a glass of water. The water level must be maintained exactly under the bone. As soon as a sufficient number of roots appear, the bone can be planted in a pot.

In your room, on the window, you can arrange a miniature orchard. Figs, coffee tree, feijoa, and well-known citrus fruits (lemon, orange, tangerine) can grow and bear fruit in an ordinary living space. Of course, to get the fruits, you need to put a lot of effort.
H more amateur flower growers grow lemons. They form fragrant white flowers and later golden, fragrant fruits. Citrus fruits, sometimes, grow unexpectedly in rooms - when in a pot with geraniums, or fuchsias planted a seed and forgot about it, and then, after a long time, a strong sprout appears. If it is transplanted and carefully looked after (most importantly, in winter it is necessary to provide the plant with a low temperature of 8-12 degrees), then in a few years a beautiful, slender tree with dark green shiny leaves will form, and at 10-12 m it can give the first fruits. .
And sometimes citrus fruits are propagated by cuttings, this greatly accelerates fruiting. But, it is better to graft a cutting, or an eye from an adult specimen, is already bearing fruit up to a 3-4 year old seedling that has grown from grain. The fruits may already appear next year.
In a bright warm room with windows facing south or southeast, the coffee tree grows well, you just need to take care of sufficient air humidity.
More demanding care requires pomegranate - a deciduous shrub native to Northwest India. Since the seeds do not germinate well, even in greenhouses it is mainly propagated by cuttings taken from young annual shoots. The cuttings take root in a greenhouse at 20-25 °. Pomegranate loves light, it needs nutritious clay-humus soil and regular, but moderate watering. Young bushes are transplanted annually, and old ones, in spring, change the top layer of the earth. In winter, you need to keep them in a cool room, and sometimes water a little so that the earth does not dry out. Flowers and fruits develop on strong annual shoots in the 3rd year.
Not bad can develop on the window and figs - the usual fruit plant of the Black Sea coast, only the time before fruiting is doubled. The fig grows quickly, so you need to replant it annually in fresh nutrient soil, and in the fall, partially cut off the crown. Cut out excess "fat" shoots and ends of branches. Figs are also photophilous, so in summer it is recommended to take them out to the balcony or garden, slightly shading. In winter, figs shed their leaves and require a lower air temperature (6-12 °).
The tomato tree, or cefomandra, is relatively rare in rooms, originally from Brazil. It's fast growing evergreen tree with large heart-shaped leaves, very decorative and distinctive. The orange-red fruits resemble tomatoes in taste and appearance. Ground tomato cuttings can be grafted onto cefomandra, they will grow like perennials.
Cefomander can be grown in a bright place at a temperature of 15-17 °, in nutrient soil. In summer, water should be plentiful, and in winter - moderately. In the spring, the tops of the shoots are pruned. With good care, plants begin to bloom and bear fruit for 3-4 years.

Many other plants with bright fruits can be grown on the windows, for example, various peppers, "egg trees" (one of the varieties of eggplant), and others.
If you put a treadmill next to such a window, then at any time of the year you will feel like in a summer garden. How to choose a treadmill is better to turn to professionals.

Types of indoor fruit plants

They will fill the house with fresh aromas, the rare beauty of their foliage and flowers, and with diligent care they will give you sunny fruits even in winter. But before choosing the inhabitants of your future orchard, it is important to know about some of their whims.

All southern fruit strangers, most often found on domestic window sills, can be divided into three types:

- citrus fruits (lemon, lime, orange, tangerine, grapefruit);
- Oriental (pomegranate, persimmon, peach, apricot, fig);
- exotic (banana, feijoa, kiwi, pineapple, avocado, passion fruit).

Undoubtedly, each of the plants has its own care requirements, which you need to carefully familiarize yourself with in advance. But there are still some general rules:

For any "exotic" you need a specially selected soil mixture, they are unlikely to like ordinary earth from the yard;

With the help of self-cross-pollination of plants by hand, you can achieve a better fruit yield;

Don't forget to provide "southerners" with enough sunlight and heat. In some cases, it is good to stock up on artificial sources of light and heating;

If you are less interested in the fruits than in the decorative foliage of the plant, then it is permissible to place it on the northern windowsills;

In warm seasons, indoor fruits can be safely taken out into the fresh air, but you should not immediately leave them under the scorching sun: accustom them to direct rays gradually, starting with light partial shade;

Fruit trees can grow to quite decent sizes, so it is important to prepare new convenient containers for them and spacious habitats in the room in advance;

Fruits grown from seeds, as a rule, adapt better to new conditions, but it will take at least 7-8 years to wait for fruits from such plants, and even then after grafting from a fruiting tree;

Before planting, the fruit stone is washed, cleaned of pulp residues and soaked for several days in ordinary water, then placed in the refrigerator for another 2-3 days. After that, it is deepened into the moist prepared soil by 1.5-2 of its size, the container is covered with polyethylene and humidity is regularly maintained. Sprouts may appear in 1-4 weeks.

Fragrant citruses

There are many dwarfs specially bred for the plant in containers (Meyer lemon, Key lime, Calamondin orange, Oroblanco grapefruit, etc.). But it is quite possible to grow any kind of store-bought citrus by burying a fruit seed in well-drained soil.

All citruses love a regular shower, but you should not be zealous - it is important to ensure that the ground under them does not dry out. A humidifier will also be useful. Fertilizing with manganese, iron, zinc, nitrogen and trace elements has a very beneficial effect on citrus fruits. They are usually fertilized once a month.

Citrus trees, as a rule, love to please with flowers, of which, alas, not everyone is ready to turn into a fragrant fruit. To increase fertility, try using a soft brush to pollinate the plant yourself.

Guests from the East

Among oriental fruits, peaches, pomegranates, persimmons, figs, etc. are often grown indoors. Unlike tropical plants, guests from the East do not need so much moisture in the soil and air. Quietly tolerate moderately warm, room conditions. But they need no less sunlight. For example, peaches, nectarines, apricots take root well on sunny windowsills with a temperature of 10-13 C. During the period of fruit formation, it should be warmer - from 18 to 21 C.

Indoor pomegranate can grow up to 1 m in height, so it needs a spacious pot with well-drained soil. Under favorable conditions, it often blooms with pretty scarlet flowers. The fruits appear in early autumn, but they rarely ripen. At the end of summer, pomegranate especially needs fresh air and sunny color. Annually, the crown of the plant must be cut.

It can become quite "compliant" among oriental fruits. It is grown from dry seeds at warm room temperature (above 20 C). In winter, heat is reduced to + 12-15 C and the plant is placed away from heating appliances. He loves the sun, except for too direct frying rays, moderate watering and organic top dressing (chicken or pigeon droppings diluted with water 1:10 are good).

tropical capricious

One of the tempting ideas for connoisseurs of the exotic is often to grow a pineapple from the top of a fresh fruit. The planting mechanism is simple: cut off the green top of the fruit with pulp and place it in wet sand, then regularly water it. In the cool months, the future plant is covered with a film until the roots appear. However, indoor pineapple rarely pleases with real fruits, but the original pointed leaves look quite decorative.

Those who dream of having a banana palm in their apartment should immediately tune in to painstaking work. These plants are very demanding. They usually reproduce by offspring or seeds. Their development requires a high temperature (+25-29 C), even in winter (at least 16 C). Abundant watering and regular organic top dressing are fruitful. Bananas may appear after a minimum of 3 years. It is important to avoid strong drafts.

For beginners, you can be advised to tame coffee or. They are quite non-capricious and are ready to regularly please with crops. In winter, it is important to provide them with a temperature not higher than +10 C and maintain moist air around the plants all the time, for example, by spraying them regularly.

If desired, almost all overseas fruits can be grown at home. The main thing is to be patient and carefully study the recommendations for care. Good luck with your fruit experiments!
