Raising flowers at home can not only add interest to life, but also purify the air, but not all flowers are suitable for raising at home. Some flowers, while beautiful, can be a nuisance and even a potential threat to your family's health.
Here are four tips for not growing flowers at home, which are not superstitious but based on the experience of people who have come before.

1. Poisonous flowers
Although some flowers are beautiful, their juice or flowers contain poison, such as dripping Guanyin, oleander, etc. The toxicity of these flowers can be harmful to humans, especially if there are small children or pets in the home, who may accidentally eat them out of curiosity and cause poisoning. Therefore, for the safety of your family, it is best not to raise poisonous flowers at home.

2. Thorny flowers
Thorny flowers, such as roses, cacti, etc., have unique ornamental value, but their thorns can cause harm to the human body. Especially when there are small children or elderly people with limited mobility in the home, they may accidentally touch these thorns and cause skin injuries. Therefore, to avoid unnecessary injuries, it is advisable not to grow thorny flowers at home.
3. Crippled flowers
Flowers that have grown old have lost their ornamental value, but can also become a breeding ground for bacteria or mold. These microorganisms can be harmful to human health, especially for those with a history of allergies or respiratory diseases. Therefore, once you find that the flowers in your home are wilting, you should treat and replace them with new ones in time to keep the home environment fresh and healthy.

Fourth, flowers with too strong smell
The smell of some flowers is too strong, such as nightshade, lilies, etc. Although these scents smell good, prolonged inhalation can cause discomfort to the human body, especially for those who are sensitive to scents or have respiratory problems. Excessive fragrance may also irritate the nervous system and affect sleep and rest. Therefore, for the health and comfort of your family, it is advisable not to grow flowers that are too fragrant at home.

In summary, poisonous flowers, thorny flowers, wilted flowers, and flowers with too strong fragrance are not suitable for breeding at home, at least not within the reach of children. When choosing home flowers, we should pay more attention to the safety and suitability of flowers to ensure the health of our family and the comfort of life.
