Precious greens for your home

/ 04:20 AM September 05, 2020

A trip to Sonya’s Garden is an ultimate treat for every plantito/plantita.

A green craze swept our households during the COVID-19 pandemic. Without the option to work or hang out elsewhere, many of us spent time indulging in home-friendly hobbies. A noticeable demographic began turning into plantitos and plantitas. Now, fruit trees occupy once idle lots while potted greens decorated our porches.

It is easy to see how the trend rose. The plantito badge itself reflects the bond we develop with greens because they know how to gratify us. While they wilt with insufficient or improper care, plants reward outstanding handling with some bright, colorful blooms and lush greeneries. As living décor, they lend vibrance and breathe life into our homes.

Even science proves the benefits we get from plants. They help filter the air we breate, provide insulation and boost both immunity and psyche. Thus, they help alleviate diseases plaguing both body and mind, from some cancers and psychological distress to mood and lifestyle disorders. When we eat food from our own gardens, we also eat healthier and make huge savings.
