Selection of Various Plants for Your Home Garden Creations

Do you often find yourself struggling to choose suitable plants for your home? Before selecting plants, the theme or type of garden needs to be determined. There are two types of gardens: wet gardens and dry gardens. Wet gardens require a lot of water.

Dry gardens are suitable for homeowners who don't have much time to care for plants. This is because dry gardens don't need to be watered every day and can be watered every 3-7 days, depending on the type of plants used. On the other hand, wet gardens require extra care, such as trimming the plants. Wild plants also need to be pulled out periodically to maintain the beauty of the garden.

One type of decorative plant suitable for wet gardens is shrubs. These are plants that can grow in clusters like bushes and don't reach a height of 2 meters. For example, onion plants, spider plants, etc.

Sansevieria, also known as snake plant, is an easily propagated plant. Its care is also not difficult, and it does not need to be watered every day. Sansevieria will grow beautifully in a place with intense sunlight. This plant can counteract sick building syndrome, or health issues due to high levels of carbon dioxide, nicotine, and bacteria in a building. Sansevieria also helps reduce electromagnetic radiation emitted by televisions and computers, as well as neutralize other toxic gases.
