The concept of "demanding flower care" is relative and individual for every gardener. Some are ready to check the temperature and humidity level in the room three times a day, adjust the conditions in the apartment to create a comfortable environment, while for others it is difficult to observe regular watering. However, the list included not the most capricious, but curious plants.

Bulbous succulent plant habitat for which the tropics are. The highlight of this flower is the ability of the leaves to curl if it's too hot outside. This manipulation reduces the surface area from which the liquid evaporates, which saves the plant from the heat.

Albuca is not afraid of direct sunlight, so a south window is also suitable for it. In the summer season, you need to create a temperature of 25-28 ° C for it, and in the fall - about 15 ° C. If you do not make mistakes in care, in the middle of spring a stem with flowers resembling bells will grow on the flower. Flowering will last 2-3 months and will delight the owners of the apartment.

Greenovia

It is a succulent in the form of a rosebud that begins to bloom. The peculiarity of the greenovia is that it actively grows and develops precisely in winter, unlike many other specimens that are at rest at this time. In summer, on the contrary, she rests, so watering in June-August is limited to once every 2-3 weeks, so that the soil surface is slightly damp. And in winter, the plant is watered once a week.

This flower is characterized by a change in shape throughout the year. In spring, succulent leaves gather at the center of the stem, thus forming a goblet bud. And closer to winter, the leaves straighten again.

Rowley's godson

Another name for this plant is pearl threads, and it accurately describes the appearance of the flower. Most often it is grown in hanging pots or used as a ground cover.

This flower is far from being capricious, it patiently endures exposure to direct sunlight and adapts to any level of humidity and temperature. Therefore, the plant can be placed both on the southern windowsill and nearby with a battery.

Excessive watering can harm this houseplant, so check the condition of the soil before moisturizing. Even during a period of active growth, there is no need to water Rowley's groundwort often.

Lithops

Lithops owe their unusual appearance, resembling stones, to evolution. Growing in the desert, they disguised themselves as inedible objects in order to survive. Plants easily tolerate low levels of humidity and thrive at high temperatures.

Watering lithops is one of the rarest - in the summer about twice a month, and in winter, moisture is not required at all. If you notice that the leaves are shrinking, you need to water the lithops every 4-5 weeks.
