Well, 2020 was an absolute eyeopener. While some of us displayed our productive best, some of us just waited for it to be over and going by the recent pandemic news the wait is not yet over. One more thing it has made us realize that we all need hobbies, productive hobbies, other than work and we have to make our home our refuge for bad days. Lets bring these two together and we have gardening. Plants are more than just air purifiers and oxygen generators and you don’t have to take our word for it, but there are scientific studies that prove that plants make people happier by making the home a stress free environment. Gardening is also a positive hobby that is tactile in nature and channelizes thoughts and energy into a positive outlet. What’s more, even the potting soil can help you keep a handle on daily stress and anxiety. This is because soil contains microbes dubbed “outdoorphins” (M. vaccae) which work as natural antidepressants.

And for all this, all they want in return is light, a little bit of water, and an audience to flaunt themselves. So, lets make 2021 the year of home gardening.

For you we have curated a list of house plants that pretty much grow themselves. Almost all the indoor plants listed here thrive indoors in indirect light from windows and can live happily in regular Indian weather conditions. However, just as man proposes and God disposes, there can be a few unforeseen issues like too much water or infestations. For which we can only say underwatering is way better than overwatering and taking preventive measures like spraying neem oil once a month will keep the pests away.

FYI, succulents are not a part of the list for the only reason that everyone is expecting them to be and we couldn’t agree more…so succulents are a good choice if you have little time to water your garden.

Lets get to the plants then!
