The Latin name for this plant is Impatiens psittacina, although it is more commonly known as parrot flowers. From the side, it resembles a purple cockatoo. The parrot flower is a plant native to Southeast Asia. It can be found in Thailand, India, and Myanmar's tropical rainforests. Impatiens are a low-maintenance, easy-to-care annual plant. In truth, there are only three essential elements to producing and maintaining healthy, thriving plants. And it all starts with choosing the correct environment for them to thrive!

Pacteilis radiata is a type of orchid that is commonly known as the white egret orchid. This orchid has a lovely blossom that looks like a white bird fluttering its majestic wings as it flies. Because it is difficult to find, this orchid is rarely offered as seedlings or adult plants. You can, however, purchase seeds to sow at home. Grows best in full sun or partial shade in evenly moist, well-drained, slightly acidic, humus-rich soil. During its growing phase, White Egret Flowers require consistent rainfall but not damp soil.
Monkey Orchid

Dracula simia is known as the monkey orchid because to its distinctive shape that resembles a monkey's face. This orchid is found in the mountains of Ecuador, Colombia, and Peru. Aside from its distinctive form, this orchid emits a strong perfume of ripe oranges. Monkey Face Orchids are picky and demand highly specialized living conditions. As a result, it is not the best plant for a new gardener.
Alocasia Macrorrhiza Stingray

Alocasia macrorrhizos stingray is a very unique type of Alocasia plant. As the name implies, this plant has leaves that look like stingrays. Complete with a sharp tapered tip like a ray's tail. This plant will thrive with enough sunlight. But keep it away from direct sunlight so that the leaves don't turn black. Use room temperature water to water the soil. Because it likes high humidity, this plant is best placed in a wet bathroom or kitchen.
String of Dolphins

This succulent is similar in shape to a dolphin jumping on the surface of the water. Its unique appearance will make the veranda more lively. If it has grown quite dense, this plant can also produce white and pink flowers. String of dolphins can grow well indoors if it gets enough sunlight. So place it near a window that is exposed to sunlight. Make sure the soil is not too wet to prevent the roots from rotting.
