I have few plants inside my home, it is often given water by myself. It is red rose plant, ginger in small pot. I do also like to have small pond inside my home with some fishes in it. Also some greenery with bit space planted with plants and grass. I hope to do when I get some workers to do that. When I had been to a near by resort there in each room there is water flow from a small pound that is going through every room in that resort, there are also few plants inside the rooms. It feels somewhat more close to nature even when gets into a room with concrete walls.

Plants are good for health, but there also plans which could be poisonous that are not grown inside a house.

Indoor plants - Plants in containers.
I love plants indoors and outdoors. Only 2 months ago (around) I remodeled my indoor plants under the staircase. I have some indoor plants there, but sometimes some of them don´t like the place and wilt. I have to change them once in a while.

Hello Sham, It may be good to keep the greenery inside home too and a pond inside home, is it that much good. I felt it may attract the mosquitoes else you have to take extra precautions for that. Keeping ‘Thulasi plant’ in pot may help to drive away mosquitoes.

Sounds like a neat resort you visited. We don't have the funds to do such a thing here other than grow typical house plants. Though the neighbor has a small fountain in their yard outside they've expanded, my kids enjoy watching the water flow and the different pails that tip ect.

That sounds really nice. I would love to see that, I bet it is very pretty. I have to admit I am really bad about growing indoor plants. I do pretty well with outdoor ones, but I really don't have a good place to put any indoor plants where they would get sufficient light, no shelves near windows. If I did put a big potted plant by a window my dog would probably knock it over all the time trying to get to the mail man.

A room with some plants in it has a homey atmosphere. The plants gives out oxygen, which makes the room fresh and cooler than those with nothing at all. However, don't just overdo it because it might attract too much insects in the room.

This sounds interesting. I have seen little tropical plants and things like this and know of someone locally who makes and sells little plants like these that you can use like this all over the house. They are quite interesting looking, and I am sure for any plant lover, a big to do. For me, I prefer no plants as they are so hard to remember to care for. But if you enjoy them, enjoy them, as I am sure this is something others notice when they come around for sure.

This is a great thing to do. I have been wanting to do the same thing. Usually I will just go to the grocery store and buy the fresh flowers, but they only last so long. I like the idea of bringing nature inside as well.
