Introduction

A couple of years ago, I went to visit a friend on a housewarming party. They had bought a 200 year old house, with style, history, beauty, architectural soundness and best of all, it had plenty of land around it. And then I looked at all the houses in the row. Beautifully designed, and with wonderfully kept lawns. When I asked them where was the garden, they looked at me, and said, is not that lawn enough, we do not need gardens with lots of trees, herbs, shrubs, and plants. Who is going to maintain them...

Unfortunately, coming from a land, where every house has to have a garden or some sort of greenery in order to get one's fresh source of oxygen, 24/7, even if one is living in a flat, high up in the atmosphere, this outlook was rather bewildering for me. But then, each to his own.

So before you begin reading this book, think why you have bought it. You want to start your own little garden, which does not take up most of your time, adds more greenery to your surroundings, and best of all, you can expand it in the future to grow vegetables, herbs, shrubs, plants, and even trees.

Do you know the reason why so many people living in cities and who are suffering from an oxygen and greenery deprivation find themselves perpetually suffering from respiratory problems? They do not even have a little green plant in their homes, though one is thankful that this trend is changing now, slowly, and the go Green Revolution is extending to homes, balconies, apartments, terraces, offices, and any open space or enclosed space.
