What would life be without the beauty of nature? Perhaps a little duller. And for us at Garden Club London, it would be a lot duller. Even if you live in a city, it’s possible to grow your own plants and vegetables, even on a balcony. But, as it is with most things in life, there are upsides and downsides to growing your own plants and vegetables. There are many benefits of having a garden at home.

Its aesthetic value
When you see a garden in full bloom it’s easy to forget the challenges of gardening and enjoy the beauty of it all. Gardens are able to give us an aesthetic value that is second to none. No matter where in the world you are, it is possible to appreciate the natural beauty of a garden. And for many, this beauty is more appreciated when it is grown personally. There is something about seeing your own garden flourish that gives it a unique quality and aesthetic value that you can’t get from a visit to a florist.
Its mental health benefits
Having a garden at home can do wonders for your mental health and well-being. Research has shown that gardening can be extremely therapeutic, perhaps even more so than visiting a therapist. This is due to the fact that when you’re gardening, you’re fully concentrated on what you’re doing. You don’t have time to think about your worries, problems, or other things you may be dealing with in your life. When you’re gardening, nature is your therapy. It lets you focus on what’s around you and helps you to reset your thoughts and emotions.
