List of colours for kids

Here is such a bell-teremok . Very different small insects love him for this!

Try with your child to compose a fairy tale “Bell-Teremok” or “Under the Bell” about how during the rain under the bell different insects hid and got to know each other (by analogy with Suteev's fairy tale "Under the Mushroom"). It is best to play such a fairy tale in pictures or with toys. In this fairy tale you will be able to consolidate the baby's ideas about insects, stimulate dialogic speech. Start the fairy tale yourself, and the kid will continue the sentences you started: “There is a teremok-teremok in the meadow. He is not low, not high, not high. That Teremok is called a bell. Once... She ran up to the bell... And she said... And the bell answered her.... And she began ... to hide from the rain in a bell, ”and so on. By beginning phrases, you help your child learn how to build a text and how to connect sentences in a text. Be sure to write down the resulting fairy tale, retell it - the baby needs to feel that his achievements in writing and speech creativity are significant for close adults! nine0007

This flower has unusual flowers - they are of two colors: yellow and lilac.

Ivan da Marya the flower is very beautiful. But you don’t need to tear Ivan da Marya! The flower will quickly wither and lose its beauty. Let it please us better in the meadow!

There is a fairy tale about where this flower got its name from.

The Tale of the Flower Ivan da Marya

Once upon a time there lived Ivan and the beautiful Marya. Once they went to the forest for mushrooms and berries. But a storm arose, a thunderstorm began, thunder struck. They had nowhere to hide. Then Ivan shielded Marya from the rain with himself, and Marya sat down near the bush. The storm ended, and in this place a flower appeared. This flower had yellow flowers, which were covered with blue leaves on top. Here, in memory of Ivan and Marya, they called the flower Ivan da Marya. And you find in the flower, where is Ivan, and where is Marya in this plant? nine0007

Marya sat down by a bush in the rain. And since then, this plant alone has not lived. It always attaches itself to another flower, “sits down” next to it and feeds on it.

Do not confuse Ivan-da-Maria with Ivan-tea. Look at the picture - this is Ivan-tea. In another way it is called "fireweed".

Ivan tea is a tall plant. Its flowers are collected in a brush, similar to a candle. They are a very beautiful bright lilac-pink color. Ivan-tea flowers contain a lot of nectar, so bees and beekeepers love this flower. Delicious honey! Ivan tea is used to make real tea - “Russian tea”, “Ivan's tea”. That's why it's called that. nine0007

In a clearing by chance
blushed Ivan-tea :
"My purple color, friends,
can not be bypassed!.." (A. Alferova)

Fireweed wakes up very early, when we are still sleeping. He opens his flowers at 5-6 in the morning. And if the weather is rainy, then the flowers close.

Fireweed — the most amazing flower! And it is famous and useful not only for tea! Read to your child an excerpt from the story "Caring Flower" by Konstantin Paustovsky, and you will discover a lot of interesting things in this plant! nine0007

“Near the house where the forestry was located, a shady garden has grown along the slope of the ravine. A river flowed along the bottom of the ravine. Immediately, not far away, it flowed into a large river.
The river was quiet, with a lazy course and dense thickets along the banks. In these thickets a path was trodden to the water, and a bench stood near it. In their free moments, the forester Mikhail Mikhailovich, Anyuta and other employees of the forestry liked to sit on this bench for a while, to watch the midges hustle over the water and how the setting sun burns out on clouds that look like sailing ships. nine0114 That evening I also found Mikhail Mikhailovich and Anyuta on a bench on the river bank.
An unusually green duckweed swam in the pool at our feet. In clean places, water-color bloomed - white and thin, like tissue paper, flowers with a red core. Above the whirlpool, on the steep bank, fireweed has grown in islands.
- Fireweed is our assistant, - Mikhail Mikhailovich noted.
— And squirrels are also good helpers, — Anyuta added.
"I just learned about squirrels," I said. - From the boys. Is it true that you take pine cones from squirrels? nine0114 - But how! Anyuta replied. - There are no better bump collectors than squirrels in the world. Come with us to the forest tomorrow. You will see for yourself.
— Well then, — I agreed, — let's go. But fireweed helps you, I don’t know. Until now, I only knew that its leaves are brewed instead of tea.
- That's why people called him Ivan-tea, - Mikhail Mikhailovich explained. - And he helps us with this ...
Mikhail Mikhailovich began to tell.
Fireweed always grows in forest fires and fellings. Recently, fireweed was considered a weed. He was only good for cheap tea. The foresters mercilessly tore out all the fireweed that grew next to the young pines. They did this because they believed that the fireweed drowns out the shoots of pine trees, takes away light and moisture from them. nine0114 But soon they noticed that the pines in those places where the fireweed is destroyed cannot fight the cold at all and from the very first morning frosts, which happen in early autumn, they completely die.
Scientists, of course, began to look for the cause of this and finally found it.
- What happened? - Mikhail Mikhailovich asked and answered himself: - But it turned out that fireweed is a very warm flower. When the autumn frost hits and the hoarfrost silvers the grass, then there is no hoarfrost near the fireweed. Because there is warm air around the fireweed. This flower emits warmth from itself. And in this warmth, all the neighbors of the fireweed grow without fear, all weak shoots, until winter covers them, like a wadded blanket, with deep snow. And note that fireweed always grows next to young pines. This is their watchman, their protector, their nanny. It happens that in severe frost the entire top of the fireweed will freeze, but he still does not give up, lives and breathes warmth. Selfless flower! nine0114 — Fireweed, — Anyuta said, — not only warms the air, but also the soil. So the roots of all these shoots do not freeze.
- Do you think one fireweed is so wonderful? Mikhail Mikhailovich asked me. - Almost every plant can be told such amazing things that you just gasp. Whatever the flower, then just a story. Plants save us from diseases, give us sound sleep, fresh strength, clothe us, feed us - you can’t count everything. We have no better friends than plants. Yes, if I could tell fairy tales, I would tell such things about every blade of grass, about every inconspicuous little buttercup or spikelet, that all the good old storytellers would envy me. nine0114 - Of course! Anyuta said. - If they knew then what we know now, then there would be no need for fairy tales.
The next day I went with the boys and Anyuta to the Moss Forest, saw squirrel warehouses of pine cones, saw thickets of fireweed on burned areas and young plantings, and since then I began to relate to squirrels, fireweed flowers, and young pines like your true friends.
Before leaving, I plucked a bunch of fireweed. Anyuta dried it for me in dry sand. From this, the flowers retained their bright crimson color. nine0114 In Moscow, I put this dry brush of fireweed into a thick book. It was called "Russian Folk Tales". And every time I opened this book, I thought that the life that surrounds us, even the life of this simple and modest flower, is often more interesting than the most magical fairy tales.

Chamomile is also known to everyone and will never be confused with other flowers. Although no! Confused! If you see one large flower on one stem, then this is not a chamomile, this is a popovnik. A chamomile has a strongly branching stem. And on one chamomile plant there are always a lot of small flowers. Chamomile is called so - medicinal chamomile, because it helps with many diseases. nine0007

There are white daisies
In the meadows among tall grasses,
As if someone scattered pieces of paper,
Drawing suns on them.
Invites a ringing bell
Gather them in a field bouquet,
But daisies - cunning girls - <
Only smile in response. (G, Novitskaya).

What are the daisies compared to in this poem? And what else do they look like - what would you compare them to?

Good afternoon, camomile,
White shirt,
Yellow center,
Leaves - like a boat! (L. Kuklin).

What kind of shirt does camomile have? And what is the middle? How does its leaves look like a boat? Also, what do they look like?

Do you think it is possible to grow chamomile at home? Listen to the poem.

Chamomile blossomed in the garden
Petals once and twice…
All carved lace.
Nastya ran into the garden
And saw a camomile,
And clapped her hands:
“Oh, how good he is!
This little white flower
We will transplant into a pot.
Mom said affectionately:
“There isn't enough room in the pot.
Let the chamomile grow in the garden -
Snow-white shirt,
The sun and water are here,
Let it bloom in the garden! (L. Nekrasova)

Tansy is very easy to recognize. She has flowers like yellow buttons, collected in a bunch. What do her flowers look like? Listen to the poem. What did the poetess compare tansy flowers to? Is it true that she thought it was interesting? nine0007

Let tansy be modest,
yes medicinal, nevertheless,
It is not for nothing that the flowers
look like pills,
Still - like chickens,
bright yellow for now,
To the touch - like a suede nose. Golikov).

Look carefully at two pictures - tansy and mountain ash. How are tansy and mountain ash similar? What is the difference? Why do you think tansy is called "wild mountain ash"? (In tansy, the leaves look like the leaves of a mountain ash. And the clusters of yellow flowers look like clusters of mountain ash. So they called it "wild mountain ash")\u003e

Tansy is a special flower. It is medicinal, i.e. used for treatment. It's also a real compass. Yes, if you do not have a compass, then tansy will replace it! Tansy has a secret. The edges of tansy leaves are always directed from north to south!

Green dye is made from tansy - threads and fabrics are dyed with it.

Tansy also repels insects. She has a very bad smell. The hostess picks the tansy, brings it home, hangs it on the wall, and all the insects fly away. They do not like the smell of tansy. nine0007

In the past, cooks used to collect tansy leaves and put a little of the leaves in gingerbread and cookies for flavor. They say the gingerbread was delicious!

They are invisible,
You can't count them!
And who only invented them -
Merry, blue?

Must have been torn off
A piece of the sky,
A little bit of conjuration
And made a flower.
Author: E. Serova

Forget-me-not blooms for a very long time almost until autumn. There are many of them on the banks of streams. Blue forget-me-not petals. What else is blue in summer? Yes, the sky is blue, the stream and the river are also blue. And in the middle of the forget-me-not there is a tiny yellow center like a small sun. She seems to be telling us: "Don't forget." There are many legends about this flower, but for the most part these are legends for adults, not for children.

If you see chicory flowers, it means it's the top of summer! Heat! Chicory is very strong, even drought is not terrible for him! It has round blue flowers - baskets. And the stem is silvery and sticks up high. nine0007

Why is it easy to confuse chicory with cornflower? How are they similar? How can their flowers be distinguished?

Chicory is a medicinal plant. To treat various diseases, its branches are brewed, salads are made from the leaves, and a drink that replaces coffee is made from the roots. Show the baby chicory in the store. And if you drink this drink and you have it at home, then let it taste.

Chicory wakes up very early - at dawn, when many other flowers are still asleep. And falls asleep in the afternoon. If the chicory flowers do not open in the morning, then it will rain. nine0007

Cornflower riddle:
Blue head and long stem.
Well, who doesn't know him! This is… (cornflower)

If you go to the field in summer, you will see a lot of cornflowers. Cornflowers have a very beautiful petal shape - with notches along the edges. And the head of the flower seems to lie on a green cone.

The blue sky fell on the meadow,
Everything around became blue-blue,
They bloomed in the meadow, by the blue river,
Like the blue sky, the flowers are cornflowers. (N. Masley)

Golden Sea -
spikelets ripen,
Walk among them
Grasses, weeds.
Regal, blue
among the ripe rye,
Bold and strong,
We stood along the boundary.
As if overturned
Turquoise from the sky,
How beautiful
blue eyes.
Blue berets -
deep looks -
Cornflowers - flowers,
our cornflowers. (T. Tarasova)

What boy's name does the name of this flower look like? Vasily - Vasya- Vasilek. nine0007

Buttercup - yellow, beautiful. And when there are a lot of buttercups, you get a real golden carpet of them!

Buttercup buttercups -
Yellow fireworks
Scattered across the fields,
Like parachutes.
Scattered through the gardens
And turn yellow here and there (A. Alferova).

Buttercup seems to be quite harmless. But in fact, is poisonous! Fierce! It's probably not called that for nothing! Fierce buttercup. Who is called fierce? A fierce hurricane, a fierce beast, a fierce robber. That's the character of a buttercup! nine0007

Why is buttercup fierce? It has poison juice. And if this buttercup juice gets on the skin of a person, then this place will burn and pinch. In the old days, they even treated with a buttercup - they will smear the back, and this place begins to pinch terribly like from a mustard plaster. So they called him fierce.

And scientists call the buttercup very funny - "ranunculus", i.e. frog . Why is it called that? Probably because buttercup grows in damp places, which frogs love very much. Or maybe not. Do you know why? nine0007

Buttercups have another name - also very interesting. They are called "night blindness". Why? Because buttercups, like chickens, go to bed early!

Yellow buttercups are very beautiful!

Oh, what a terrible thistle! All in thorns, thorns, needles! As if saying: "Don't come near!".

But thistle - is also a weather forecaster. How does he predict it if he has thorns? It's very simple - if the thorns are very hard and stick out in different directions, then the weather will be good. And if its needles stick up, then it will rain. You can check J.

Burdock is a sticky plant. As soon as you pass by him, his baskets with fruits have already stuck to his clothes. They even say this: “I stuck like a burdock”, if a person is very tired. Have burdock baskets stuck to you?

But "stickiness" is very good for burdock. Clinging to people's clothes, his baskets travel to different places right at us as passengers. We get transport for him! Therefore, burdock grows everywhere - that people and animals carry it everywhere on themselves! nine0007

The burdock has hooks-thorns, very small, tiny, which give it the ability to cling. And now, following the model of burdock, people have come up with a fastener - Velcro. Show this fastener to your child and look at the two parts of the Velcro. One of them has hooks like a burdock. And it clings to any fleecy surface.

Plantain is a traveler's friend. How do you think he helps him? If you pick plantain leaves, wash them and put them on the wound, they will help the wound heal faster. Here is a doctor - a plantain. nine0007

Grows in the field along paths
Miraculous doctor - plantain.
I'll tell you a secret now -
He's on duty here for a reason!
If you cut your finger, it will help.
It will heal a scratch too.
If you knock your knee down, it doesn't matter!
The green doctor is always here! (N. Tomilina)

And for what it was called so - plantain. Wayfarer. On the way to. For the fact that it grows along the roads. And it's very easy to find it!

Not only plantain helps travelers and heals their wounds. Travelers help him too. How? Carry psyllium seeds. Of course, not in a bag like in a seed store. They carry seeds on the soles of their shoes. The seeds of psyllium are very small, stick easily and travel on shoes. And as soon as they fall to the ground, a new plantain grows here. nine0007

And the plantain is not afraid of us when we walk on it - its leaves are elastic, tightly pressed to the ground, it is not afraid of trampling like other delicate flowers. But if his leaves were not pressed to the ground, but were raised above it, then he would be afraid of us! After all, the leaves raised above the ground are very easy to break and trample.

Show your child a garden carnation at a flower shop or flower shop. And this is a carnation from the forest. How is it different? Yes, it's smaller! But also very pretty! It was from this small forest carnation that her garden sisters, relatives, originated. People have come up with and created many different beautiful varieties of garden carnations. But they all came from the forest carnation. nine0007

Clover - odorous porridge. That's what they call him. For whom is this porridge - porridge? For cows and sheep who love to eat clover. Bumblebees also love clover.

In the field outside the village,
Among fragrant porridge,
Clover blooms -
Chamomile's best friend.
Red lumps,
Like cat paws.
Flower balls,
The smell of the field is sweet.
Clover, of course,
Knows young and old—
Hay for the cow.
Nectar for bees.
So that the cow has,
Milk by the river,
She needs for food,
Field clover.
Let the bees circle,
Above the clover flower.
We'll be with you later,
Let's drink tea with honey! (Z. Trubitsyna)

Yarrow has an interesting name. A thousand is a leaf. It turns out that he has a thousand leaves? Why is he so called? Listen to the poem:

I don't play, I don't dream,
I'm sitting and counting the leaves. ..
And not a thousand here at all,
But only three hundred and eight.
Someone was wrong for a long time:
Petals not counted,
Without a special vocation
Gave the wrong name.
They didn’t count, but in vain:
Why am I terrible,
I’m an excellent student in botany,
Why yarrow ???

Yarrow has not a thousand leaves, but much less - even a little. But each leaf is dissected into many parts - as if into a thousand small leaves. That's why they named him that. nine0007

Yarrow is a hero. He is not afraid of rain, cold or heat. And it grows very quickly - not by the day, but by the hour!

Explain to your child how important it is to protect meadow and wild flowers and not pick them in vain. If they are plucked, they will quickly wither, and they will not bring joy anyway. And on the field or in the meadow, these flowers will please everyone for a long time, and next year new flowers will grow in the same place. From the fact that people pick flowers, many types of flowers began to disappear. nine0007

The rarest flowers are listed in a special Red Book. And they were forbidden to tear and collect.

Before, when people went to collect medicinal herbs, they took only those herbs that they needed and asked for the Earth:

“Mother, native land,
I know: you are generous.
Let the grass be carried home,
Find health.”

Flowers also suffer from trampling. Therefore, it is better to walk in the forest along the paths or near them.

Let's protect the beauty of nature together! nine0007

And now I will guess one riddle. That's what happened one summer with the kids. Listen to the story and guess why this happened? This logical task is available to children from 5-6 years old and older. In order for the child to solve it, it is necessary that he observe the plants in nature and see how they either open or close their petals. nine0007

We lived in a village, in front of the window we had a meadow, all golden with many blooming dandelions. This was very beautiful. Everyone said: “Very beautiful! Golden Meadow. One day I got up early to fish and noticed that the meadow was not golden, but green. When I returned home around noon, the meadow was again all golden. I began to observe. By evening the meadow turned green again.

Ask the child what happened to the meadow? Why did he turn green? Listen to his reasoning. And then read the boy's answer from M. Prishvin's story "Golden Meadow":

Then I went and found a dandelion, and it turned out that it squeezed its petals, as if it were all the same if your fingers were yellow on the side of your palm and, clenched into a fist, we would close the yellow one. In the morning, when the sun rose, I saw how dandelions open their palms and from this the meadow becomes golden again. Since then, the dandelion has become one of the most interesting flowers for us, because dandelions went to bed with us children and got up with us.

“At the dacha, the children got up early and immediately ran to the area where beautiful flowers and grass grew. On each leaf and flower, the guys saw large silvery, transparent, like beads, droplets of water. They shone and shimmered in the sun. "What it is?" the guys were surprised.

Do you know what it is? What are these water droplets called? Will they be on the grass and flowers all day long? What time of day can you see them?

Listen to the children's answers and tell them about dew. Show dew drops in the morning. It is believed that dew is for excellent weather. Check out this sign. Dew appears when the night is warm and the day promises to be hot. It appears because the air has become colder in the morning. The water vapor that is in the air also cooled and turned into drops of water - dew. nine0007

Ask the child if he knows what diamonds are? What are they? Read the beginning of the story to the child:

in the forest, then in the fields, in the grass, diamonds are visible. All these diamonds shine and shimmer in the sun in different colors—yellow, and red, and blue.

When you come closer and see what it is, you will see ... "0007

Pause here in the story and ask the child what we will see - what are these diamonds? Let him discuss what diamonds can be found in the morning in the grass and in the flowers. And then read the story to the end.

“…you will see that these are drops of dew gathered in triangular leaves of grass and shining in the sun. The leaf of this grass inside is shaggy and fluffy, like velvet.

And the drops roll over the leaf and do not wet it.

When you inadvertently pick off a leaf with a dewdrop, the drop will roll down like a ball of light, and you will not see how it slips past the stem. It used to be that you tear off such a cup, slowly bring it to your mouth and drink a dewdrop, and this dewdrop seems to be tastier than any drink. nine0007

Ask your child what is the difference between dewdrops and diamonds? And how are they different?

Read another story by L.N. Tolstoy for children “What kind of dew happens” in its entirety, admire the author’s beautiful language, expressive words from the story - how beautifully Lev Nikolayevich said about dew: “diamonds shimmer in the sun”, “drops roll on a leaf”. When you pay attention to expressive words in stories and fairy tales, then teach your child to listen to artistic speech, to be attentive to the native word, to notice figurative expressions in people's conversation and in works of art. nine0007

If you liked this trip to the country of our neighbors - plants, then I would be grateful if you tell your friends and colleagues about the article, and also share your impressions in the comments. What surprised you the most in the world of plants? About what, in your opinion. still need to tell the kids? What is interesting for your children?

Flowers for a children's room: what are useful. List

People have always tried to decorate their homes with indoor flowers and instilled this tradition in future generations from childhood. But not all plants that grow quietly in adults' rooms will have a beneficial effect on the health and development of preschoolers. What flowers are suitable for a children's room, and which ones are better to refrain from? Properly selected flower arrangement will create a wonderful mood, teach the child to take care of nature. There are two basic rules when choosing a plant for a children's room - ease of care, resistance to changes in external conditions. nine0019

Sansevieria (mother-in-law's tongue)

Sansevieria is perfect for a child's room - it does not cause allergies, it is unpretentious.

Differs in the small sizes, extreme simplicity in leaving. The leaves are decorative, of various shapes depending on the variety. The flowers are small white, flowering occurs every 3-4 months. There are many varieties of sansevieria that differ in color, shape, leaf color.

Effectively purifies indoor air, even in winter. Dust containing harmful substances is deposited on the leaves. Requires daily watering, the leaves must be wiped from dust as it accumulates. The flower is not picky about sunlight; it can be planted both on a window and on stands against the wall. Any well-lit room will do for this plant. nine0007

Lemon tree

Showy appearance, with proper care can produce edible fruits. Releases a large amount of essential oils into the air, creating a pleasant unobtrusive smell. Prevents the growth of bacteria, makes it easier to survive the cold period. Naturally, these flowers for children will be useful. Lemons grown on the tree can be added to tea for flavor.

Southern fruit is well suited to experienced gardeners, as there are many nuances of care and maintenance. With proper skill, a tree can be grown from a lemon stone bought in a store. The lemon tree requires regular watering, periodic fertilization. nine0007

Lemon tree releases essential oils, which is beneficial for the child's body.

Kalanchoe

Bright flower with a slight smell. Very pretty, kids love it. There are many options for the appearance of Kalanchoe, each of them has its own characteristics of care.

Kalanchoe is quite unpretentious flower, can live quite a long time without watering, but requires a place with bright sunlight.

Chlorophytum

It is considered an air orderly - it easily concentrates harmful impurities on itself, preventing them from spreading throughout the room. Perfect for a kid's room. In combination with sansevieria, it allows you to maintain clean, oxygen-rich air even with rare ventilation (especially important in winter or when a child is sick). Strongly humidifies air, does not allow it to become dry. nine0007

In terms of keeping conditions - the most unpretentious of these plants. It grows equally well both on brightly lit southern windows and on pendants in the back of the room. It is desirable to water daily, in emergency cases, chlorophytum is able to survive without watering for about a week.

Chlorophytum is the most useful plant for a nursery; it releases phytoncides and purifies the air of impurities.

The appearance of the plant is unpretentious - long narrow green leaves growing from a common base. Coloring - bright green along the edge of the sheet, brightens towards the middle (may be completely white). Some children like to chew on houseplant leaves. Chlorophytum in this regard is an absolutely safe indoor flower for a nursery. nine0007

Violet

Familiar purple or lilac small flowers that bloom almost constantly. The plant is small in size, making it easy to fit into any interior.

Needs watering when soil dries. It is difficult to pour or underfill a violet, so the plant lives well, blooms, multiplies in kindergartens and schools. Great for teaching kids how to care for plants.

Children can take care of violets and begonias.

Cypress

The name is due to the external similarity, not relatedness of plants. Cypress has the ability to collect dust, harmful substances contained in the air. It releases phytoncides that increase immunity, alleviate the cold period, and speed up recovery from diseases. Such an indoor flower would be appropriate both in the children's room and in the kindergarten group.

A feature of caring for cypress is a mandatory daily spraying with water, wiping with a damp cloth. After the procedure, the plant is again able to perform the functions of a living air filter. Spraying partially replaces watering. nine0007

Begonia

An equally well-known indoor plant, suitable for children's rooms. Perfectly filters the air, eliminating harmful substances, dust, bacteria. Likes bright light, frequent regular watering. Begonia should not be sprayed - there is a danger of damaging the leaves if the plant is in direct sunlight.

The pubescence on the stem is not thorns, it is completely safe to touch it. The habit of picking and chewing begonia leaves will not harm the child - the plant is not poisonous. nine0007

Zygocactus (Decembrist, Christmas star)

Zygocactus blooms in mid-December - early January, hence the additional names. Perfect for decorating kindergartens in winter. Bright, red or white flowers will create a festive mood.

Grows in well-lit areas, requires weekly watering. Unlike most cacti, it does not require hibernation. It is widely believed that if the Decembrist is moved to another room, flowering will stop. In fact, the plant may miss one season, but if the same conditions are maintained, flowering will not change. nine0007

Hibiscus (Chinese rose)

It is better to put a young hibiscus in a children's room, as an adult plant takes up a lot of space.

Large plant with large, showy flowers, single or double. There are a huge variety of colors of flowers. The smell is weak. In the children's room, it is better to plant a young plant, an adult - large, up to 2 meters high, will create significant inconvenience.

Tradescantia

The stalks hang down, so it is perfect for decorating walls. The use of hanging pots, special stands will allow the plant to grow, giving the room a green look. nine0007

It is advisable to set the pots with tradescantia higher - children tend to pick off the leaves. It is especially important if there are pets in the house besides the child.
