For a successful decoration and a pleasant space to live, plants are unbeatable allies. In the entryway, on a coffee table or on the edge of a window, this touch of greenery always enchants the eye. However, many of us give up on it because we consider it too complex to maintain. Misleading reasoning as there are a large number of plants and flowers that only need a glass of water to grow! Let’s find out about them in this article.
1. Hyacinth
Ideal for brightening up our interior, hyacinth can be grown in a simple glass container. However, be careful to use the correct technique because your bulb should not be in contact with water. For this purpose, it is advisable to place some pebbles in the bottom of your vase (or glass) and then deposit the bulbs making sure that the water is a few millimeters below.
2. Tulips
To grow your tulips, a vase may be more suitable. Since the stems of these flowers are quite long, they will need space in height to develop. To watch them bloom at home, simply place your bulb in some water!
3. Amaryllis
The principle is the same as for hyacinth. Place the amaryllis bulb making sure that its base only touches the surface of the water. You can use a narrow vase or stones to provide a base. Then, keep the plant warm for a week before placing it in a very bright place.
4. Garlic
To grow it, simply place the pods in a glass of water, making sure the pointed part is facing up. All you have to do is let it germinate for beautiful roots! These can be planted in the ground if you want to use it in the kitchen.
5. Chinese cabbage
The technique is very simple. Take the heart of the cabbage and place it in a little water. Put your bowl in a sunny spot, making sure to change the water regularly. Small leaves will appear after a few days.
6. Green onion
It’s a formidable trick to have on hand. Once you have consumed the green part of the onion, place the white bulb and roots in a glass with a little water. It will only take a few days to see the stems grow again!
7. Mint
To grow it at home, simply remove the leaves from the stem and place it in a glass that holds about 3 centimeters of water. Make sure your container is exposed to the sun and change the water regularly.
8. Carrots
Reviving your carrot tips is very possible. To do this, immerse them in water, allowing it to protrude one centimeter. Cover your glass container and place them in a place exposed to the sun. Change the water every 48 hours to prevent mold from forming and you can observe the appearance of beautiful tender and crispy tapas!
9. Basil
Having basil on hand is very simple. Place the plant cuttings in a glass of water exposed to the sun. After a few days, small roots will form. Once well developed, these can be planted in the ground.
10. Rosemary
Cut a 15-centimeter branch and remove the leaves that are at the bottom. Place it in a glass of water, preferably in a sunny spot. The water should be changed every day to see beautiful shoots appear after a few weeks.
