Planting

• Planting flowers or trees adds color and visual interest to any landscape. A splash of color among shrubbery or trees increases the appeal of outdoor spaces. Additionally, throughout the blooming season, planted flowers provide gardeners with flowers suitable for cutting and bringing indoors or giving as a gift, saving money that would otherwise be spent at a florist. This can be very cost-effective.
• As with most plants, planting flowers has a number of different environmental benefits. Plants help to remove pollutants from the air. During the process of photosynthesis, the flower's leaves absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen. Additionally, planting flowers can help to hold soil in its proper place, reducing erosion and flooding. This makes planting flowers a practical choice, as well as a pretty one.
