Greetings dear hiveans and community members. Happy to be a part of this wonderful prompt
As Iam a nature lover and have a lovely garden, I was extremely happy for the topic. All these potted plants were captured this morning, just a few of them.
Let me start with Spinach, a green leafy vegetable. With a rich source of iron and vitamin A & C , it is good for our eyes and boosts our immunity system.
The same is available in red colour. The colour itself says it is highly rich in fibre. We do harvest red one too. But at present its the green, we have in ample number.
Next comes an indoor plant, Snake plant. Though the name suggests as an indoor plant, it is kept outside our home. My son received just one leaf of this snake plant as a gift from his friend. But now we have quite a number of leaves in the pot.
Aloevaera, the name says it all. Its definitely a medicinal plant. I use this when I have itchin⁷g in my legs. Its a good immediate remedy. Here, in Ayurveda people use it to prepare Aloevaera oil (mixed with coconut oil & little herbs). It reduces hair fall. Also, too good for our skin and scalp, when used raw.
Here comes a coriander plant. Just a single leaf is good for aroma in curries. Another ingredient to boost your immune system. In South India, most of the curries are incomplete without coriander leaves. Few to name are rasam, sambar and non veg curries.
This one are ginger plants. As our soil is not good for growing these plants, we kept them in a small pot shaped tub filled with manure and essental nutrients. Once a while, I get this opportunity to make use of this ginger plant for cooking purpose. Especially, home grown gjngers are good for tea.
Finally, this is called oxalis plant, according to google. The colour of this leaf is purple and is in the shape of butterfly, with a bunch of small white flowers in a long stem. They just look different from other plants but beautiful at its best.
So these are few potted plants, taken from my mobile camera.
Thankyou dear friends, for your time and patience.
