You're all moved into your new loft and have it perfectly decorated. But you take a step back and feel like something is missing. Why not bring some of the outdoors indoors? If you think you lack the proverbial green thumb, here is a simple guide to indoor plants for your loft. There are many good reasons to add indoor plant life to your decor. First, they add a pleasing aesthetic effect. This is even more true in the winter when outside can be so dreary. Some plants, such as the Chinese evergreen and peace lily, have been proven to act as air purifiers. This is in addition to simply improving the air quality by turning carbon dioxide into oxygen. Cleaner air means better brain function.
Choose a place to live that feels comfortable and someplace you will be happy to come home to each day. You'll be spending a lot of time in your new home, so don't settle for someplace you can deal with, but choose a space you can't wait to move in to. Get to know the area. Go exploring so you know your way around campus and the surrounding area. Get involved. Join campus groups that are affiliated with what you love, whether it is playing sports, creating art, or making music.
Chinese Evergreen - the perfect accent plant that can tolerate low to bright light as long as it is not direct sunlight. When the top inch of soil is dry it is time to add water. But do not over water because this greenery is susceptible to root rot. Yellowing under leaves is a sign of not enough water. Aspidistra - known as the cast-iron plant because it is tough as nails, this leafy green can handle any light except for direct sunlight. The less light is is exposed to the water it needs, so be careful not to overfill.
Eternity Plant - requires watering only 3 times a month and requires minimal indirect lighting. Another great plant for beginners because you can actually bring this baby back to life! Lucky Bamboo - so named because they are believed to bring luck to their surroundings, they need need very little care. They require bright indirect sunlight and about an inch of water in their pebble-filled base. Peace Lily - has a tell when it is thirsty besides turning brown; it droops a bit. Medium indirect sunlight is perfect, and the leaves will yellow if it is receiving too much light. African Violet - a great way to add color to your greenery, these blossom about 9 months out of the year. Water them only when you feel the top soil is dry and keep them in moderate lighting conditions out of direct sunlight.
But if you just want some peace and quiet, try the Fire Side Lounge. With Apple computer access and free WiFi, lounge furniture has never felt so comfortable. Studentlofts.ca not only offers comfort and style; all buildings have professional property management and 24/7 maintenance.
