🌱 Starting August 12, LIDL stores offer a new collection of indoor plants aimed to refresh homes with elegance and affordability. The collection includes a variety of air-quality improving plants, featuring elegant palms and durable succulents. Palms such as Areca and Chamaedorea are suitable for bright, not overly sunny apartments. Palm plants are priced at €2.49 for a pot with a diameter of 12 cm and a height between 38 to 45 cm. Succulent varieties like Aloe, Peperomia, Haworthia, Echeveria, and Crassula are available in Ø 15 cm baskets with heights between 15 to 20 cm, costing €3.49 each. These plants are low maintenance, require infrequent watering, and thrive in luminous environments.

🌳 L'Albero di Giada, una pianta succulenta resistente, può perdere foglie sane a causa di eccessiva irrigazione, infezioni, parassiti, temperature inadeguate e scottature solari. Le foglie possono gonfiarsi e cadere se troppo innaffiate; radici e steli possono marcire. Per proteggere dall’eccesso d'acqua si raccomanda di annaffiare solo con terreno asciutto. Infezioni fungine richiedono fungicida, mentre parassiti possono essere trattati con olio di neem. La pianta preferisce temperature tra 18 e 24 gradi Celsius e luce indiretta per prevenire scottature. La caduta delle foglie può anche essere parte del ciclo naturale di crescita.

🌱 Highlighting four vibrant, summer-blooming plants: Gazania, Tradescantia Nanouk, Surfinia, and Aptenia cordifolia. Gazania thrives in well-drained soil, offering colorful blooms from late spring to summer and attracting pollinators. Tradescantia Nanouk, a laboratory-developed plant, impresses with striped pink, purple, green, and white leaves, requiring little water and adaptable to light conditions. Surfinia, a Japanese petunia variety, creates cascades of flowers, while Aptenia cordifolia, or Fiore di Mezzogiorno, is a low-water, heart-shaped leaf succulent. All plants are heat-tolerant and low-maintenance, perfect for vibrant, healthy gardens.
