Growing plants, flowers and herbs indoors is, for a variety of reasons, time well spent. Gardening of any sort, whether outdoors if you happen to have a garden or backyard or indoors if you don’t, offers a relaxing way to take out of day to day life and try something different. The plants themselves offer beauty, a sense of achievement and, in the case of herbs, an variety of extra ingredients for the kitchen. They are also really good for our health; having plants around the home has been shown to be of real value for relaxation and keeping healthy. Plants of all types naturally minimise humidity levels and air temperatures, and keep air hydrated to a good level. They have also been found to keep dust and pollutant levels down, acting as a first defense against all sorts of unseen factors blowing around.
