6 Lucky Plants to Grow Indoors

Have you ever heard of lucky plants, renowned for attracting luck and money? Some are known for their air-purifying or anti-stress effects, or for their ability to capture positive energy.

Sage

This lucky plant eliminates negative emotions (stress, anger, fear, anxiety). It also repels negative energies. Burning dried sage purifies indoor air and drives away harmful waves. In the kitchen, sage enhances the flavor of meats, complements salads, seasons stuffing, and goes well with pasta or sautéed vegetables. Sage can be grown in an indoor herb garden. Avoid overwatering. The soil should be dry between waterings. Prune the branches in the spring when new growth appears. To encourage growth, trim the stems by half with pruning shears.

The palm tree

The palm tree, a well-known lucky plant, eliminates harmful dust particles and attracts positive energy. Its broad leaves add a beautiful decorative touch to any room. Place it behind a sheer curtain, preferably facing west. Easy to care for, the indoor palm appreciates infrequent watering, with no stagnant water in the saucer. Check that the soil is dry before watering. When it is very dry, mist the leaves regularly with non-calcareous water. Apply liquid fertilizer from May to August, once or twice a month.

The orchid

This Asian lucky plant, a symbol of fertility, purity, and beauty, is also famous for its purifying properties. It converts carbon dioxide into oxygen, thereby cleansing the air. It attracts positive energy and promotes its circulation. Species with long floral stems require a stake to stay upright. The orchid prefers a well-ventilated, semi-sunny environment near a window. Air it out from time to time. For watering, use rainwater, once a week in summer and twice a month in winter.

The pilea

Also known as the coin plant, the pilea is said to bring prosperity and money to its owner. It has small, round leaves resembling coins. This plant thrives in small pots or larger containers. Place it in front of a sunny window and water it regularly to keep it in great shape. Repot the pilea every two years. Choose a larger pot with potting soil and sand. Dig a hole in the center and replant without removing the soil from the roots. In summer, water once or twice a week, and half as often in winter. Remove any water remaining in the saucer.

The jade plant

Also called the wealth plant, the jade plant is said to bring prosperity and wealth to its owners. It also has purifying properties and cleans the air in the room where it is kept. It has small, round leaves grouped in clusters and grows quickly in a well-ventilated, sunny environment. As a succulent, the jade plant adapts well to its environment. It can grow in a small, perforated pot. It requires little watering and minimal maintenance. Dust its leaves regularly to remove dust.

The peace lily

Recognizable by its green foliage and white flowers, this lucky plant brings peace and love. It has air-purifying properties and needs only a little light to grow well. Watering once a week is enough to hydrate its broad leaves. The lily needs a fairly wide pot to grow harmoniously. Its stems multiply quickly as it adapts to its environment. Repot every two to three years, ideally in the spring, to stimulate flowering. Provide large enough pots for the new shoots. Divide the roots of the mother plant into as many parts as you wish.
