There is a habit that at least all those who generally have disturbed sleep should adopt: putting bay leaves on the pillow.

Inside our home, perhaps especially those who live in large cities, characterized by scarce green spaces, we tend to use plants and flowers just like a furnishing accessory.

On the other hand, for those who want to, there is truly an embarrassment of choice, given that there are several examples that can easily be adapted to a domestic environment.

Plants as a piece of furniture

Of course, however, you cannot think of buying a small shrub, placing it anywhere in a room, and expecting not to give it adequate care .

In fact, if this mistake were made, we would soon have to say goodbye to our green purchase. Before taking a plant home , you must, therefore, learn  how to best manage it , know its main characteristics and proceed accordingly.

If, however, you don’t exactly have a green thumb, you could therefore seek advice from an expert, such as, for example, a nurseryman or a gardener . It goes without saying, therefore, that it is important to inform yourself and do things in the right way to make this type of furniture last.

It is, in fact, something alive, and, for this reason, it needs the necessary attention. If you really don’t want to commit, to tell the truth, there are also fake plants on the market , although, let us tell you, they can be quite bleaker.

But anyway, in addition to making an apartment beautiful and more welcoming, plants , in general, can even give us some interesting benefits . In fact, to name a few, they are able to oxygenate or humidify the air and, in certain circumstances, even promote relaxation .
