I have a good garden in my house even when I was with my maternal grandparents I used to do gardening as there are more then 100plants in one floor only there are above 100 plants. Its a good hobby.
I like flowers and love plantation.
I wish i could have a huge garden in my house.It is still a dream.

Even i too but there is scarcity of space so i can't. :)
What i think that Government should make it compulsory to have gardening in every house.
This can help reduction in Pollution and Carbon emission will also be in control.


Ideally, people should themselves realise the importance of plants and trees and the importance of preserving what is already there ..


I agree, instead of putting responsibility for everything on the government, why cannot we use our own brains and start doing things that we know are for our own good. There are so many, hundreds of thousands of people all over the country who have lots of space around house but they lay it all up with concrete or tiles, just because they do not like plants or they do not like hard work involved in gardening! :angry:
Okay.. I have one question here.. I am living in Apartment, and thinking about to put few plants inside room as I have no gallery ... As we have heard, Trees and plants release carbon dioxide at night.. so is it good to keep them in house!?

It is true that the plants release carbon dioxide at night, but that would be harmful to you if your house is filled with many many plants, which would not be the case. You would have not more than 2 or 3 plants, isn't that right? Also, if your house is ventilated well, no issues whatsoever. Just to be cautious, do not keep the plants in your bedroom or near the area where you sleep. There will be absolutely no problem then.

The balcony is the best place to keep your plants in an apartment house. You can have many plants with little imagination. Have them in hanging position or specially designed plant carriers where you can place many pots according to your choice.
Sunil..With my new rented apartment, I have no balcony.. So that will not fit..

@Kalyani.. That sounds good. I guess one or two plants in the drawing room can not create any problem. Thanks.

Sounds good sunil, one can do wonders with plants around the house and in our balconies.One can also grow a variety of plants in the same container ...Even a single plant kept in a strategic position really enlivens the whole space..

That is true, in fact it is better to have plants in the sitting room if it is not used for sleeping at night, and in any in other open space like balcony and I am told that bathroom is good for certain plants like ferns and ivy because of the favorable conditions...

Every one of us have hobbies. I strongly agree that Gardening is one of the healthiest hobbies. Gardening is my interesting hobby.
Making garden in the outskirts of the house is good. However, I don't think that mosquitoes and other insects which spreads diesease are good. Actually, garden must be kept clean and regularly insecticides should be spread to kill insects.
Other than that, it is best and colourful hobby. It keeps you healthy and fit.

Gardening needs physical work. It is a hobby as well as an exercise. I have almost all the instruments needed . I love doing gardening works. It gives me immense pleasure.
Yes gardening is the very good physical exercise that all can do. It gives happiness when seeing the flowers or fruits given by the plants which are planted by us

Whenever I enter into my garden, I feel relaxed. Mary, I hope you are having your own garden at your home. Is it so?
Yes I have my own garden in my home. Many trees and flowering plants are there in my garden. :whistle:
I love gardening but due to lack of space i am unable to plant more rose plants. I have various types of rose plants. So i am thinking to make a garden on my terrace.

Amit Mitra,
Now-a-days, Roof Garden is getting popularized. I hope you can go for roof gardening. But before going for that, get thorough knowledge about that. All the best!
For me the best part about gardening besides the exercise,enjoyment and also being one with nature, is the kind of mental relaxation it gives.You forget just about everything when you get actively involved with your plants and I have found solutions and possible avenues to my problems while I was gardening..
