A garden in your house is a sacred place, where you nurture the greens that induce our lives with beautiful vibrant colours, of the beautiful flowers, and sweetness as in fruits. With greenery in the home it makes our surroundings soulful with the chirping of birds that come to sit on the trees, plants and shrubs and hop around. A garden consumes most of your leisure time and energy, and in return gives an abundance of joy, peace and satisfaction when you see your babies grow and bloom.
The beauty of the garden gets converted onto you and you become a part of the garden. It’s as if the plants are growing within you and transforming you into a beautiful person just like your garden.
Nowadays, not too many houses are blessed with gardens; but if one wants to live a fuller and more peaceful life, one must get a garden for his own abode. For people living in apartments, even small green corner in the terrace can send positive vibes and make you day happy.
My beautiful garden has a variety of plants – some are flowering, some bear fruits and vegetables, and some other plants look simply adorable because of the sheer beauty of their leaves.
A large variety of vegetables are grown organically in our garden such as tomatoes, brinjal, lady finger and green chilies. We get chemical-free produce for our house, and we relish its abundant health benefits.
The sole purpose of writing about my garden and sharing photographs is to encourage everyone in our neighbourhood to make a small garden in their homes for a life-transforming experience.
