Plants have lived side by side for centuries. As a result of observations of them, people developed a whole system of acceptance and superstition. For example, many are convinced that some flowers can not be brought into the house, since they bring trouble.

Ivy.

He, like other climbing plants, is called a "muzhegon". It is believed that an unmarried woman who has ivy growing at home will not marry, and if she does, her husband will not stay for long. Residents of southern regions of Russia believe that this plant is most dangerous for a newly-married couple: it provokes discord and quarrels.

Hibiscus.

This flower is not recommended to have unmarried people: personal life will be derailed. For example, if there is a lover, he under the influence of hibiscus can go to another.

Tradescantia.

Another "muzhegon", according to superstition. According to the belief, if this plant is in a house where a married couple lives, then the marriage will soon collapse and the man will leave the family.

Ficus.

It is called the "plant of widows". Before the war, ficus was a very common domestic plant: people believed that it attracted prosperity and well-being. But in the post-war time the opinion about him changed.

We noticed that in those families where husbands and fathers returned from the front alive, there were no ficuses. So these plants began to use a bad name, and many former owners rushed to get rid of them.

Palm.

People's rumor says that if you bring a palm tree into the house, then a great grief will happen. Before the revolution, many rich and noble people kept palm trees in their tubs. And how did everything for them end when the Bolsheviks came to power?.

True, they say that tragic consequences can be avoided, if you do not bring a palm tree on your hands, and roll it - say, on a cart.

Cactus.

There are several beliefs associated with it. On the one hand, it is believed that cacti protect the house - repel robbers. On the other hand, these plants allegedly do not allow women to arrange a private life. And if a woman already has a husband, then the cactus is still not recommended to keep at home - a man will sing.

Violet.

Violet is considered harmful to women. According to the belief, a girl whose house is growing this flower, will never marry for love, and most likely, for life will be left alone. Also, the violet mysteriously causes diseases of female reproductive organs.

Lilac.

We like to tear up an armful of lilacs on the street and bring them home.. But from the bouquet of fragrant flowers can not only get a headache: the legend says that the lilac attracts adversity.

Callas.

These refined and refined flowers are considered "funeral". They are quite appropriate to bring to the grave to the deceased, but home - it is not recommended: according to the belief, they bring sadness to the house.

Pansies.

They are often planted on graves. But at home they are completely inappropriate: they can bring, if not death, illness and trouble.

Fern.

Quite steadily the belief that the flower of the fern found on the night of Ivan Kupala reveals to the person clades. However, in some parts it is believed that the fern brings trouble to the house and will draw to the owners a variety of misfortunes. In other places it is believed that the fern, on the contrary, diverts people from evil. And if the plant suddenly withers, then it took over the damage, intended for the inhabitants of the house.

Kamish.

It has long been called the "flower of the deceased", and our ancestors, he was associated with death. Probably because the reeds are growing in the swamp, and the marshes have always been considered benign places. Today, many people who have been to the ponds or in the countryside bring the bulrush home and put them in the water. This can not be done! The popular belief unequivocally asserts that the reed ostensibly to the deceased.
