Nothing is as satisfying as growing your own plants in the yard or in your home. Not only is gardening beneficial to the environment, but getting your hands dirty while creating a stunning landscape or filling your home with lush greenery is therapeutic and keeps you in touch with nature. The coolest thing about growing plants is that they reward you with something in return for all your hard work, whether it is flowers, privacy, shade, beauty, or food. To top it off, outdoor plants draw a variety of beneficial insects, birds, and wildlife, such as butterflies, honey bees, hummingbirds, and squirrels.
