Can Epiphyllum be placed in the bedroom? Do I need to water it when it blooms?

1. Can it be placed in the bedroom?

It is best not to place Epiphyllum in the bedroom, because it releases a strong fragrance when it blooms, and when the fragrance concentration is too high, it can easily cause discomfort. Moreover, at night, the plants also need to breathe, and then release carbon dioxide through breathing, which will affect the air quality in the bedroom. The plant will have a transpiration effect, which will increase the humidity in the air, so it is best to place it outside at night.

2. Do you need to water the flowers when they are there?

It is not advisable to water the Epiphyllum when it is in bloom. Watering at this time will cause root rot and flowers to fall off. You can spray it with a small spray bottle to increase the humidity in the air, which will help it absorb water, make it grow stronger, and make the flowers more colorful.

3. Notes

The soil should be kept moist at normal times. Dry soil will be detrimental to the normal growth of Epiphyllum. When the soil is dry, you cannot water it with a large amount of water immediately. You should first spray a small amount of water to moisten the soil layer, and then start watering after the soil is moist. When watering, make sure the plant is watered thoroughly without any accumulation of water. This will allow the plant to absorb sufficient water and grow stronger.
