Why Choose Plants?

Water and Heat Resilience:

Outdoor plants suited for Hyderabad’s climate, such as Marigold, Bougainvillea, and Hibiscus, thrive with minimal irrigation under the city’s intense sun and erratic rainfall.

Mental Well‑being:

How to Care for Indoor & Outdoor Plants in Hyderabad

Can indoor plants survive Hyderabad’s 42 °C peak summers?
Yes. Choose heat-loving indoor plants like ZZ Plant, Snake Plant, Money Plant; place them indoors or in shaded balconies away from direct sun, and water early morning. A porous potting mix helps soil retain moisture without rotting roots.

How many indoor plants per room?
NASA research (Indian context) recommends at least one large air‑purifying plant per 200 sq ft for mild improvement in air quality—though home turnover reduces efficacy. Still, plants provide psychological, humidity, and décor benefits.

Are budget garden plants care-free?
Low-maintenance plants—like Jade, ZZ, Pothos, Bougainvillea—require minimal watering and pruning once established, but still benefit from seasonal feeding and occasional leaf cleaning.

Can outdoor plants be planted in containers only?
Yes—many shrubs like bougainvillea, marigold, and mandevilla thrive in large containers. Ensure 18–20 in. pots with a well-draining mix and a slow-release fertiliser.
