I feel that they not only add color but also brighten any drab space in your house.it is also healthy to have a couple of plants in your living room.

I like to have indoor plants at my home. I have some plants at balcony. Croton plant, Giloy, tulsi and one bonsai (not remembering name) is there. :)


What's Giloy???
I had this flower just out side of my home. It stayed there for a few days before disappearing. I am trying to know its name if some one could be of any help. Now there is neither the flower nor the plant.

I know this plant, it comes in white and lovely pink variety, I love when its in full bloom! Its commonly called Crepe Myrtle, belonging to genus Lagerstroemia.

But this is some kind of fast ground covering plant that grows too fast in any open area.

In fact I have never seen this flower any where in NCR, so this was kind of a surprise, I had to go out of here for months and when I came back this plant was no where to be seen.

These are abundantly planted everywhere in Pune and rest of Maharashtra. Yes it comes in lighter pink and a darker shade that is close to red as well. I also saw a hybrid specially cultivated purple variety, although my favorite is the white one!
We can also plant Guduchi in a Gamla..

True Kalyani, I was also surprised to see Aloe in the list.
I don't prefer growing trees inside home. At night, plants releases CO2 gas. This is harmfull for us, especially during sleep. It is good to grow trees in open air.
