Yes Jun 30, 2018

I have green plants all over my apartment (a ZZ, a Calathea, an Areca, a Marginata) and some flower plants (orchids and violets) on my coffee table. I have been dreaming of a small vertical garden on my terrace but I live in a warm climate and the sun is too strong. I had two small olive trees on my terrace but they were attacked by a pest and I gave them to a gardener to be treated.

I'm blessed to have an ornamental garden, which I cultivate with passion (I am a certified garden designer). Since it's a quick step from my office, I haven't felt the need for too many house plants, though I have a couple in the living room.

Absolutely! Jun 30, 2018

I have as many as two gardens! There are plants as well as small trees.
However, I'm used to working in the garden only in the spring

One day... Jun 30, 2018

Right now, I sit next to the balcony, and there are a few plants there. However, a lot less than I'd like to have. I actually want to work in a place surrounded by green, and shaded by leaves instead of concrete. But I have to move to a house to do that. In an apartment, it's a lot harder. So it is part of my future plans, but for now, I have to do with a few vases.

The only place in the house without a surfeit Jul 1, 2018

My wife is very keen indeed on house plants and we have more than enough everywhere in the house - except in my study, the garage and the garden shed.

no but Jul 4, 2018

I personally don't keep plants around me, but my partner has installed a few in here and I'm just a few steps away from a beautiful garden. I find dead-heading the roses and geraniums or pulling out a few weeds can be a very good way of taking a breather.
