I love flowering plants, and I'm glad my s/o does too, he is always buying me plants this time of year. He stopped and bought me two geraniums, bright pink flowers, and a hybiscus, that is bright yellow flowers, and a hanging basket. Most of my flowers are outside, however, I do cut them and bring them in in vases. I have never been real good with plants, but I seem to be getting better at it lol. I also have iris' in a small flower bed in the yard. I just repotted several of them that he bought me, I'm trying the miracle grow potting soil, his mom had great success with her flowers when she used it.

I do have a few plants in my house. Mainly I have flowers growing outside. I love indoor plants, but I don't seem to do very well with them. I wish I had more of a green thumb, maybe I will look up some information online in order to take better care of my house plants and hopefully will learn enough to feel confidant to buy some more house plants. Someday when my husband and I buy a house, I would love to have a sun room where I can have tons of plants to enjoy. =)

Hi nupats, I love watching plants so I have kept some plants in my courtyard. Some are flowering plants whereas the others are non flowering. I keep three pots of those leafy greenery plants at the front porch to make the environment looks much lively. I usually water them twice a day during sunny days. One in the morning before going to work and the other is in the evening after back from jogging. I feel pleasant watching my favorite plants and I could find them changing everyday even though the growth changing is very slightly. It is fun to watch the plant growing from a tiny seed until bearing fruit. Besides I do enjoy watching ants and bees busying on the plants.

I love plants!! I have several azalea bushes in my front yard plus I have two rose bushes. I want to get some more some time when we have the extra money to do it. I think flowers make a yard look really nice.
I also have several plants in my house. I have a bamboo plant, an aloe vera plant and about three cactus plants. :)

I love indoor plants. It is good to have plants inside the house. It creates a healthy environment. I like rose plants and the money plant. I do not have as of now but will surely have it. But, I have few other plants..

I have several plants at the front part of my house. and I think stray cats love them too. ^_^
I have several orchids and star fruit tree, some other little plants in pots, since the front part of our house is just a small place, but at least I know the bird and stray cats love to pay a visit here. ;)

Hi
I love plants and flowers. But I have only a few indoor plants since I am living in an apartment. Before moving to this apartment I had a very good collection of plants and it was my favourite hobby to nurture them. I had a collection of jasmine, roses, orchids, marigold, lilly etc. But now I keep indoor plants.

I also have a few plants in our house. I just started planting them about three months ago.
They are flowering plants also and growing well. Im still finding other plants to be added to my collection.
I like those that are not fragile and easily grows without to much care.

Are Americans have the habit of raising plants?China is not everyone in the custody of the plant.Many of Chian's rural areas,in rural areas each have a basic field ,the majority of people are growing grain,they also have gardens and pant more vegetables,cucumber,leek and so on.If the economic conditions of good points they would support some flowers,some kind of Peach blossom.

unfortunately this is one of the disadvantages of living in a metro area like NYC...Space! In my younger years I had a garden, however since I moved to NY, I have since reverted to indoor plants which do not always fare very well. I usually try to keep at least 2-3 plants simultaneously. Today I have a palm and amaryllis. I am still surprised that the latter is still thriving in this heat. Perhaps I do have green thumbs afterall!

At present in my house i have very few plants ,but when i was 8yrs old my parents kept all types of plants which seems to be garden almost.we planted many plants.Among them flowering plants like-Rose,Lilly,Jasmine..etc. and vegetable plants like Cabbage,Potato,Beetroot,Cauliflower,Bringal...etc. and Fruits like pomagranite,Banana,Sapota.. etc .It seems to a mark where we use to get all types in our home and we use to distibute them to all my friends and aunt houses.
But now we left that home and came to other home now and we have only very plants in this house like mango trees,pappaya and some type of rose plants etc.
I like gardening very much and we are planning to keep many more plants in our home but we are getting transfers and we cannot stay back here itself so we are planning to keep in next house.
I ENJOY GARDENING.

Like you, I enjoy having plants indoors too. It adds to the natural surrounding and gives a softer feel of your place.
My place is a single storey home and its easy to surround the home with so many different types of flowers and plants. We hope to bring in more flowers to add to the already existing collection and also herbs which we used both for kitchen and medicinal purposes.
Favourite plants are mostly fruit trees like avocadoes, durians and pineapples. You can view some pictures of our collection at our website which you can visit from my profile.

Yep, I really love plants. And having flowering plants and potted plants outside our house makes me relax just seeing it. Not only it helps to beautify our house, it was also quite enjoying seeing it especially, if in December, when the orchids are blooming, it was really fascinating.

I'm afraid I'm very, very bad with plants inside the house. They just don't survive. We have a lovely garden though, and I have plants on my verandah which we enjoy when we have our morning coffee. I love palm trees for the garden - and we have lots of lavender bushes which smell gorgeous when they're flowering, and jasmine as well.
