Without light, there is no life for plants. Only under the influence of sunlight can photosynthesis, i.e. the production of nutritious organic compounds, and the development of plants occur.The fact that plants have enough light can be seen primarily in their appearance.
Deficiency of this life-giving energy is manifested by pulling out the shoots, too bright coloring of the leaves and lack of flowering.In turn, excess light - and thus alsoheat - causes burns of leaves, falling off of set buds, infestation by pests. These are plants that are favored by cultivation at southern or northern exhibitions.

Cacti can also grow on the southern exposure sites.
1.Monstera with holesMonstera deliciosa likes bright positions, high air humidity and temperature around 21 ° C.Too much sun causes the leaves to fade.
2.Curly PeperomiaPeperomia caperata likes warm, light to semi-shaded places. This species best tolerates warm and dry air in homes.
3.Begonia(hybrid forms) Begonia likes warm and shady places.Plants should not be grown at temperatures below 16 ° C.The substrate must also be warm.
4.SzefleraSchefflera is intended for cultivation in light to semi-shaded positions, in winter it is grown at a temperature of 12-16 ° C, in summer it is sheltered from the sun.
5. Persian cyclamen Cyclamen persicum likes cool, light to semi-shaded places. Then it blooms the longest. The ambient temperature should not exceed 16 ° C permanently.
6.RapisRhapis excelsa prefers semi-shaded to shady places.The leaves of this palm turn yellow in the sun.It grows best at 15-20 ° C.
In addition, on the sites with the northern exhibition, the following can grow: perennial, African violet, aukuba, calathea, yew, dracaena, philodendrons, pilea, scindapsus.
