The change in Gardening: Is it a positive one?

Gardening has changed a lot in the past decade. There were innovations in horticulture including the planting styles. Of all that is happening here, where do we expect this to end up in?

A recent article from telegraph, signifies the changes in gardening in Europe over past decade. Plants do not give you fruits, flowers, or medicinal leaves – the innovation in gardening has enabled them to decorate your house and make it much beautiful naturally.

Apart from decoration, the increase in awareness of environmental pollution has many people towards planting trees or plants around their surroundings. I am not sure how much it will help us to retain the ozone layer, but something is always better than nothing.

I have covered decoration and anti-pollution aspects of the plants. Plants can also give you to provide fruits and vegetables (reminding you). So many people are even cultivating plants that fall under this category. The recent recession that hit our economy might have taught you how/why to save money. When you have a vegetable/fruit garden in your backyard, you can cut spending on buying vegetables/fruits. It also gives you a kind of emotional pleasure when you are cooking the vegetables of your garden.
