1) Citrus plants:
Citrus plants are a genus belonging to the Rutaceae family. Some common examples include oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits, kumquat, tangerines, and other hybrids. These plants are easy to grow houseplants but fruit much easily outdoors in full sun. According to Feng Shui customs in Chinese traditions, the citrus plant can absorb negative energy from people around it and transfer it to its fruits, making them sour. By sucking the lousy energy citrus plants bring positive activity to our households, resulting in good luck.
Care for Citrus plants:-
- These plants love the sun and will appreciate at least 8 hours of sun, for efficient fruiting.
- They want soil that is consistently kept damp but not soggy, as soggy soil can cause root rot. To prevent soggy soil, let the soil dry out in between waterings, but don’t let the soil dry for longer than 2 days.
- Citrus plants also don’t fare well in temperatures colder than -1°C, hence they are not ideal for places that get frosts in the winters.
- These plants are also prone to getting diseases like a citrus canker.
