The plant that gains prominence in autumn when the others begin to lose color arrives at Lidl

Summer is the time of maximum flowering for a wide variety of plants due to the long hours of sun and heat, so it is when we most tend to enjoy the appearance of our garden or terrace. But what happens when autumn arrives? Well, many plants lose their leaves to save energy, others go into dormancy, losing color, and in general the panorama is very different from the previous season.

A grateful and resistant houseplant that purifies the air

This is when indoor plants regain their lost prominence, to transform empty corners of our home with their attractive green color. And among the most desired plants is the calathea, of tropical origin, with very striking leaves that will effortlessly attract all the attention to that point.

We can find it in Lidl stores starting this Friday, September 4, discounted by 13.99 euros 9.99 euros. It is a plant that needs good drainage and an aerated substrate, since it does not tolerate the accumulation of humidity. So it is best to place the pot on a plate with pebbles and water (without the bottom of the pot touching the water).

It prefers rainwater to tap water, so if you don't have it, let the tap water sit in an open jug for 24-48 hours so the chlorine can evaporate before watering. In addition, it does not like drafts or cold, so keep that in mind when choosing its location. Furthermore, in exchange for your care, this plant will absorb the toxic gases present in the air through its large leaves, and release oxygen and water vapor. A natural air purifier without the need for plugs.
