Hmm, I have one place next to the front door, a flower pot would fit perfectly there. The place is sunny. I'm just wondering what kind of flowers to buy, so I need your help. Should I opt for ‘winter roses’ that have a flower or for some plant like ficus that doesn’t bloom? Or for some third species?
What choice would you make?

@CarolDM Yes, I could change. Good idea, would you opt for these types too or do you have a better idea?

@LowRiderX There are so many options, depends on the space. But your choices sound perfect.

@CarolDM There is enough space for one larger pot, but only on one side of the door.

@LowRiderX I am well, thank you and you and your family? I have been quite busy lately, it is good to see you too.
I don't have here a picture of my succulents but tomorrow I will take one. Succulents can grow big and they are very resistant.

@nela13 I'm glad to hear that, the most important thing is that everything is ok. To me, when succulents are mentioned, I immediately imagine them in small pots, they are usually kept on the table in small transparent glass containers.

@nela13 Hey nice to see you, I hope you're all well !? Not a bad idea for succulents either, they are also quite durable but they are small and the space is bigger so I thought to put some slightly larger plant, these winter roses grow in a bush or possibly that ficus tree

I love ivy, crawling ivy but maybe that is not suitable.

@LowRiderX Yes a creeper. Yes you would have to have a trellis.

@RebeccasFarm Is that a creeper? If so, I have no conditions in front of the door for that plant

@LowRiderX That's right! I had a large ficus that dropped leaves if I moved it. They are very sensitive plants and big cry babies!

@DianneN Yes, that's how I thought to change with the season, ficus and it doesn't need much light, it doesn't even like direct sun

@LowRiderX The apartment complex has flowers in many areas. There are some outside my bedroom window. We can't plant anything outside.

@just4him So the majority voted so i will put on winter roses and then probably change again with some seasonal plant. Do you have any flowers at the front door?

@just4him I understand, but I was thinking of some potted flowers right in front of the apartment entrance

@Hannihar I'm not sure that roses would survive in a pot, we usually plant them in the yard here, they need a lot of space, but yes, I love roses too
Does that mean you don't have a plant in front of the front door?

I prefer the ficus. Both are beautiful and can really beautify the house.

@jobelbojel Believe me, I have the impression that whatever flowers I put in the entrance to the front door will look much nicer, somehow 'fresh' I will most likely change with the seasons

@jstory07 I already have such potted flowers in the yard, but this in front of the door should somehow refresh the driveway itself

@GreatMartin And here, most often, this plant is grown at the entrances. There are really beautiful ones, but I'm not a fan, although I have them

@DocAndersen I also buy cut flowers, during the spring I regularly change the flowers, it's a habit, I do it all my life, somehow my room is different, fresher when I have flowers in a vase.

@DocAndersen Awww so nice of you, but I generally like flowers and those that don't bloom. I will put winter roses and then later in the spring I will change with some seasonal plant (if someone doesn't steal flowers in front of my door in the meantime)

hmm i don't know. i guess i'll think about what would look the best with the color of the walls or the rest of decorations and flowers you got there. i'm sure you'll make the right choice. and even if you don't you can always replace it hah

@aureategloom Hey, there you are, glad to see you
As for the walls, they are in paneling (wood) so any would fit well. Well, I will probably change, with each season, a different plant, I have some and I have to buy some more

@aureategloom I already know, I'll put on winter roses for now. When it gets a little warmer I will change, they are ok for now, durable and lower temperatures

@May2k8 Winter roses are quite durable, they are not delicate, their petals are not soft and do not fall off, which would not make additional work around cleaning

@Juliaacv I'm not familiar, maybe I am, if we call it by a different name here, now I will immediately check what that plant looks like..
Yes, we have, but I haven't seen that plant here in the area, it is mostly planted in backyards because it needs a lot of space ... I don't have so much space for such a branched plant, even if it grows in a pot.

@jaboUK I have them in the garden too, but on this other side (at the front door) my entrance is somehow empty, as if one pot is missing to make it look 'fresher'.
And as for orchids, they are beautiful, they just require a lot of attention and knowledge, but at least I don't doubt you, you have one of the most beautiful courtyards I've ever had a chance to see

@cacay1 Thanks, I decided to put winter roses while it is still cold because they are durable and do not require a lot of conditions, as the weather is nicer I will change the plant Did you have a plant in front of the front door?
