NEEM TREE

This tree has great medicinal value and its extract is used in pesticides. Its twigs can also be used to brush one's teeth and neem oil is used in physiotherapy.

Since neem leaves are very bitter, a mixture of neem leaves, tender green mango and jaggery is eaten on New Year in South India as a symbolic gesture gearing up to face the sweet, sour and bitter experiences of the coming.

Therefore, this is a good tree to have in a house garden.

MANGO TREE

Most parts of the mango tree have medicinal value. Its leaves are used in religious rituals. It is considered very auspicious if the dead are cremated using mango tree fire-wood.

Sandal wood is very expensive as it is used to make exquisite handicrafts, and its oil is very fragrant. Sandalwood paste when applied on the forehead, cools the head, and so is used in temples and in hot places like Kerala, India. It is also used to make incense sticks.

Ideally, all thorny plants should be pulled up and destroyed. The reason could be that the thorns can hurt you when you brush past them so be careful.

CREEPERS

Creepers or other plants should not be grown along-side the building wall as support their clingers slowly creep into tiny cracks in the walls and gradually widen them as they grow, causing damage and seepage of water through the walls.

Creepers should only be grown in a garden, and they should have their own independent supports.

A creeper like a money plant can be grown within the house but should not be grown outside, using a tree for support.

FLOWER POTS

Flower pots should not be kept on the compound wall facing the North, East or North-East as they will block the useful morning sunlight coming in from these directions.

Flower pots and decorative plants can be placed on the ground in these directions, but they should not grow taller than 3 feet.

LAWNS AND WATER BODIES

Lawns should be in the East or the North. A small water-fall of three to four feet can be constructed in the East or the North leaving the North-East corner.

If there is a swimming pool in the garden, it should be in the North or North-East direction, so that people using the pool benefit from the sun rays and also, the water will get purified by the direct rays of the Sunlight.
