<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"> Plants like most humans are comprised of over 60% water or more ....and like everything else the eclipse has an effect profound influence on the behaviour of plants , though there isnt much research done on this we sat last night to observe some of our plants during the total lunar eclipse .What we saw noticed was quite amazing.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"> Vriksha Nursery in Mumbai is home to over 700 varieties of plants both exotic and native , and though we shut our gates for the public at 6 the plants completely come alive in the moonlight at this little oasis of green in the city. During the eclipse we decided to look around, look down at our plants and not up at the gorgeous blood moon. we decided to to observe some of the more tactile plants and see how they reacted .</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">plants we observed usually these plants when not interfered with would remain open through the night...just as we were approaching the eclipse around 12:50 the plants closed on their own...not 1 or two all 30 of them decided to close within 10-15 mins.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Final observations :- Though i didn't make enough notes to tell you why or what exactly is the reason for the plants to behave in this way during the lunar eclipse. Its quite certain that its one of the most exciting times to be at the nursery. <span style="background-color: white; color: #555555; font-size: 15px;"> the eclypse </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #555555; font-size: 15px;">has important consequences for plant growth and pruning: vigorous, sappy plants will suffer if cut, harvested, or pruned close to the full moon.Those who work with our herbs will sundelly notice a slight change in its fragrance or taste . Moonlight is subtle and has only a 15% effect on pant growth </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #555555; font-size: 15px;">Most plants seem to need a rhythmic exposure to moonlight—at least for a week or so around the full moon—for optimal immunity, wound healing, regeneration, and growth and the lunar eclypse surely effects the same.</span></span></div>

Vriksha Nursery was established on 7th April 1979 by my dad Mr. Ashok Lalwani. On his very own Birthday, he quit his job as a waiter in the Oberoi and started working on plants in his backyard. His family mocked and laughed at him. They thought he had lost his mind for quitting his stable job and instead choosing to work in the mud. He hired 2 gardeners Marriappa (worked for us for almost 25 years) and Raju (still works for us).<br />
He started producing plants by cuttings and basic grafting techniques which he read about in second hand books that he purchased from raddiwalas. Within a few months he made a formidable stock of plants and became a go to wholesaler in Mumbai. His name became synonymous with plants like Lantana, Agloenoemas and Durantas. Soon the toil paid off and he landed a lucrative job for Thomas Cook India to landscape their head office. From there he never looked back.<br />
Dad started working on massive projects like when he planted large avenue trees outside the domestic airport and landscaped projects for Hindustan Lever to name a few. A couple of years later he married the love of his life in true filmy style. And the wheels of Vriksha kept moving.<br />
An unfortunate family incident got this momentum to a grinding halt. The contracts dried up so did <br />

the money and as the couple got ready to welcome their first born the situation looked bleak. Thats when dad decided to do something different. He got on his Bajaj Chetak and rode from set to set in film city offering plants on hire and sometimes even delivering plants on that very bike. He would spend 14-15 hours a day working hard and he eventually made a name for himself in Bollywood. Things were looking up again and this ambitious young couple now with 2 kids decided to take the next step. They bought a small piece of land on the outskirts of Alibaug. But with all their savings invested in buying the land, developing it was a distant dream. They worked hard but somehow that dream never materialised.<br />
Now this is a part where my dad made a deal with the devil ! A family member offered to invest money and my dad would give him a chunk of the profit. The idea was to create 'India's first one stop garden mall'. Vriksha's then sister concern was born. Dad finally had the capital and he left no stone unturned. I once saw him carry 30 cans of paint from Mumbai on a bike all the way to Panvel, I've seen him sit in a truck and travel cause he dint want any confusion.<br />
When dad was busy with this project mom took over Vriksha. She learned Ikebana from the Sogetsu school and gave the nursery a whole new wing - Flowers. Vriksha provided ideas, jobs, plants, money, handwork and literally blood, sweat and tears. And one fateful day the bubble burst ! Forgery, deception and outright cheating ensued and everything that my father worked for went up in smoke. I saw my dad break down. (This Nursery still exists. won't name them ,won't shame them but Karma is a bitch)<br />

Dad slipped into depression and it was heartbreaking to come home from school and watch your dad just hold you and sob. What he had built with his ideas and hard work was taken away from him (I, as a very young child though was secretly happy....i got to see him more !) Mom all this while slowly and steadily grew Vriksha. She made small changes making the business more sustainable. My mom used to read to us every night when putting us to bed, often my father would eavesdrop. I remember the night when she read a quote "Falling down doesn't make you a failure, not getting up does.What defines you is how well you rise after you fall."<br />
Something about this line struck a cord with dad and from the ashes like a phoenix he rose. The very next day he sat on this red bike he had and started meeting old friends, acquaintances and associates and soon enough something clicked. A local MLA who dad went to school with let him work on a small public garden in the area. Within 6 months dad was all over the place doing what he did best. He was working with all the major MPs, MLA, agencies like BMC, MHADA and was setting up public gardens across the length and breath of Mumbai that exist even today. At that time I was an 18 year old fresh out of JR college happy to drive him to his meetings. Somewhere on running his errands I realised this was all I wanted to do, Vriksha became my dream too.<br />
We lost him suddenly, way before his time. Financially things were tough again, Suddenly we had court cases, people harassing us to shut down Vriksha. Most people thought and hoped we would shut shop, sell the space and move abroad. But we weren't going to let his dream fizzle out so easily. <b>They tried to bury us, little did they know we were seeds !!</b><br />
<b> </b>I moved back from the UK, started this very blog, typed every word on our Facebook page, work diligently and honestly and with each passing day we try our hardest to live up to the green legacy he left behind...And as I always say "We are only just getting started !!"<br />
<b> </b><i>Vriksha today has 65 workers. We manage more than 90 garden spaces in Mumbai. Have set up gardens all across India. Our blog has more than 1,00,0000 views and we have over 32,000 people on our Facebook page .</i><br />

Lets start by telling you guys this is a slightly off topic post. A post about guys and girls from age 18-40 who all of a sudden have taken a very keen interest in horticulture. These people stop by #Vriksha in hilariously colourful outfits dreadlocks wearing funky glares and using terms like "Bro" "Groovy" they say goodby too in a funny way..."peace out" " Booom" "Jai Bholenath" .<br />

"Jack" sold his cow to get his magic seeds. these guys buy them online....they get them from all sorts of places. These guys adore these seeds they keep them in boxes fancier than those the jewellers use for diamonds. They come asking for advice they speak about artificial lighting to grow plants when i tell them the lights are expensive they dont mind they say.... they want to sit and discuss soil Ph for hours . The right growing medium the right N.P,K required to grow their "Precious" seeds.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
An Average plant shopper that visits us has a few simple questions ... Name of the plant ,will it flower ,will it fruit , how much will it flower how much will it fruit, how much sunlight , how much water....when do we add manure etc etc.But these guys are different they aren't interested in the fruit the aren't interested in flowers all they want is the budd. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Its the case of Dr Jekkle and Mr Hyde here the Dr is an expert gardener who checks soil moisture levels to keep the plant in good health...he fertilizes his plants expertly using only organic manure that he has got of flipkart. The other guy forgets to water his tomatoes for a week .<br />
<br />
Let me make one thing clear here ....I do not sell seeds nor do i sell plants of this special plant banned under " the NDPS act of 1985 . So dont call asking for it .<br />

Spotted him at a local starbucks a few months later... he was extremely excited to see me...telling me his plant is doing well ...very well and offer me some of hi homegrown budd...i politely declined...i told him i was happy for him and asked how the others were doing...the spearmint the rosemary...has he cooked with them ? i was curious...i wanted to know did he harvest the tomatoes...did he show his friends the venus fly trap...he looked at me and said..." No brooo. They all dies in a week of taking them....i forgot to water them for a week cause i had my exams even my cactus died cause i dropped hot coffee in it one day and forgot and then ants came n ...BLAH BLAH BLAH. I dared to enquire further...how did your seeds survive...how did that plant do so well...a big bush of 5 ft (he showed me images on his cellphone) . oh those i wake up and water...then i water them in the evening again depending on the soil moisture and humidity levels that day.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
In this article i merely want to state a simple point....There are thousands of plants in nature each one more beautiful than the other...i know you love your high...but have you ever eaten a freshly plucked tomato...have made tea out of fresh cut leaves of a spearmint...have you ever seen a venus fly trap in action...its simply spellbinding. The world dosnt need more pot heads ....it dosnt need more engineers or more industrialists it desperately needs more horticulturist , it needs more naturalist . And i know this generation of people have it in them to be probably the best only if only they apply the same love to growing other plants as much as they do when they grow weed.</div>

Our nursery is a testimony to our love for cactus and succulents we have one of the largest collections of them in mumbai....they work so well in creating tabletops landscapes and terrariums one of the most easiest plants to maintain iv come to fall in love with this family of plants....as a child one chapter of my favourite cartoon moments was when silvestre or the wolf in road runner or tom from tom and jerry smacked or landed on cacti....jevenile humour yes i know ...but i fell in love with the cacti the plant somehow came across as a symbol of karmic justice to me...hahahha....funny but true...
So when i came across an episode of master chef australia where one of the mystreybox ingredients was "prickly pear" cactus i was beyond thrilled it opened up a whole new world of plants that i just had to eat!!!
So lets dive down to the varieties of plants that you can eat and grow easily in mumbai :-<br />
<br />

1) Prickly Pear :-<br />
Commonly called prickly pear, Opuntia ficus-indica is perhaps the most common edible succulent. The name refers to the juicy, reddish-purple fruit that develop atop the leaves in summer. While wholly edible, the fruit is filled with seeds that prove difficult to digest for many people. The flat, spiny pads of prickly pear are also edible and are widely eaten across Latin America as a vegetable called nopales. Both the fruit and pads of prickly pear must be cleaned of their spines before consumption and both can be eaten raw or cooked. However, the pads are more palatable when cooked since they have a slightly soapy taste when eaten raw.<br />

2)Night-Blooming Cereus:-<br />
Night-blooming cereus is the common name for several species of epiphytic cacti within the genus Hylocereus You may commonly know these guys as Bhrama kamal. The plants bear fragrant, showy flowers during the summer months that later develop into edible fruit called pitaya, or dragon fruit. Each fruit is filled with creamy white flesh that has a subtly sweet flavor and scent. Many gardeners grow night-blooming cereus as an ornamental and most will never see a fruit develop, but you can greatly increase the likelihood of the plant developing a fruit if it is kept under warm, bright greenhouse-like conditions.<br />

3)Aloe Vera :-<br />
The clear, mucilaginous sap found inside the leaves of aloe vera plants is widely used as an herbal remedy for skin irritation and burns, but it is also edible and sometimes consumed as a drink to relieve digestive upset. Extracting the edible sap from aloe vera is simple and takes only a knife to cut the leaves lengthwise and a bowl to catch the sap as you squeeze it out. No special preparation is required before consuming aloe vera sap, but its thick texture and slightly bitter taste is unpleasant to many people and can be greatly improved by mixing it with an equal measure of filtered water.

4)Yuccas:-<br />
To the indigenous people of the American Southwest, few plants are as versatile as the yucca. Species such as Spanish bayonet (Yucca baccata) and Mojave yucca (Yucca schidigera) are of particular value since most parts of the plants are edible and can be eaten fresh or dried and stored for later use. The young flower stems, fruit and seeds all provide a palatable source of nutrition, and the leaves can be eaten steamed or lightly sauteed when still young and tender. It is best to avoid eating the older leaves and roots of yuccas since they contain a high concentration of saponins, which possess a soapy taste and can cause gastrointestinal upset if eaten in large quantities.<br />
<br />
5) Dragon Fruit :- Yes that wildly cool look fruit thats taken the market by storm grows on a cactus,i could go on and on trying to describe the fruit to you but then again we all know what the beautiful dragon fruits taste like. They come in two types one with the red flesh and one with the white flesh .<br />

6)All of the Sedum species (also called "stonecrops") are edible (. They are used in salads and are said to have a sour or peppery taste. Eat these sparingly; some can cause indigestion if eaten in large amounts.
Purslane is my favorite of the edible succulents, being useful as ground cover in moist areas, easy to grow, and quite pretty -- not to mention extremely tasty when cooked.
In the US, purslane is considered a weed, but it is excellent in stews and soups, as well as tasty fried and reasonably good in salads.</div>

#Mumbai has a host of Plant nurseries , Jhadwalas ....hawkers who sell plants when a 6 years back i came back from the Uk post my degree i questioned myself what do we need to do that sets the store apart...One of the 1st things that came to mind was ..." Have different plants" so over the years we hunted the length and breath of india and even abroad to get in some unbelievable plants...This is by no means my last article on this subject cause we are on a quest to keep adding new and different and plants that will make people come visit us from far and wide .<br />
<br />

10) Sorrel :- A New addition to our plant list is an interesting salad leaf a plant that looks like lettuces but tastes like a kiwi fruit or a strawberry !!! The plants got quite a fan following at the nursery and urban farming enthusiasts , naturalist and foodies aloe have been smitten by this little guy<br />

9) Heirloom Purple corn :- We 1st displayed these seeds at an exhibition in my school and the reactions from parents and kids alike were couldn't believe that corn is purple . We had several question like " How did u colour them" to "did you genetically modify them" and each time we had to explain how corn is not just the white and yellow genetically modified "bhutta"you see at your local vegetable vendor.<br />

8) Stag horn ferns :- These were my favourite plants as a kid i remember my dad took me for a plant exhibition and i had stomped my legs rolled on the floor...and i think refused to eat till he go me this beautiful fern. This plant is quite unique it looks as the name suggest as the horns of a stag and what i find most amazing is how it creates its own pot with its leaves...you will find several of these beautiful ferns all over the nursery on trees on the walls or just hanging around .<br />

7) Edible roses :- My wife finds it hilarious how i love rooafsaa (rose drink) that was the main reason for the hunt for the perfect edible rose i think....we found this rose with an amazing lady who has been growing roses for over 50 years After an interesting conversation about what she thinks about some of the new hybrid teas being mass produced in the market she took me to this guy..."the flavour and the smell is unequal" the taste ...oh the taste guys is so beautiful i actually ate 7-8 flowers on my way back to the nursery!!!!<br />

6) The repellants :- mosquitoes , rats , pigeons , fleas , ticks ,bed bugs ...you name the pest and we have a natural repellant for the same . These came by when we noticed that the Bmc started an ill informed campain against house plants dissuading people to grow plants in their home!!! yes they actually ran adds , put up posters saying that house plants cause dengue !! On 1 hilarious morning we had a BMC we had a Bmc fumigation guys come and served us a notice cause they claimed that mosquitoes were breeding in one of our plants...The pitcher plants to be precise ...<br />

5) The candle light Tree :- this one was left to me by my dad...i was 10 i think and i wondered wht this wierd drumstick like fruit was hanging from our bonsai...he sat me down and explained " this is called a candle tree...why candle tree cause the fruits look like candles and when the fruits dry they actually have natural wax in them that enables them to burn as wax candles !!!<br />
<br />
p.s this plats als amazing cause they have flowers on their barks not in the foliage amongst the leaves make a very very beautiful bonsai.<br />

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Popularly called "Living Stones", Lithops are some of the world's most fascinating plants! Since their discovery by John Burchell in 1811 when "on picking up from the stony ground what was supposed a curiously shaped pebble, it proved to be a plant", Lithops have been avidly sought by the collector of succulent plants.</span></span><br />

Vriksha has suddenly seen an increase in demand of succulents over the past few months. I dont know what how or why but people have taken to succulents with some gusto so much so as to keep us with the increasing demand we had to make a separate section at our Mumbai nursery dedicated to these succulents and cacti.Technically, a succulent is any plant with thick, fleshy (succulent) water storage organs. Succulents store water in their leaves, their stems or their roots. These plants have adapted to survive arid conditions throughout the world, Fortunately for us, this adaptive mechanism has resulted in an incredible variety of interesting leaf forms and plant shapes, including paddle leaves, tight rosettes, and bushy or trailing columns of teardrop leaves.
Be it in terrariums or table top arrangements our 1 out of 3 people that walk in has been asking for these beauties and we have over 35 different varieties for them to choose from. And though maintaing these is extremely easy but most struggle to keep these tiny guys from rotting away. So we decided to write a little article to help you guys maintaing these plants in the best yet easiest way possible :-<br />

First off, I will say that succulents tend to grow best outside. As cute as they are, they don’t make the best indoor house plants but they work none the less. That said, if you love them as much as I do, you’ll grow them anyway! And you should! There are a lot of other indoor house plants that may not be as picky as succulents, but succulents are tough enough that they still survive and do fairly well inside. Haworthias and Gasteraloesare two genus of succulents that do especially well indoors.
<br />
When succulents are indoors it’s often hard for them to get enough sunlight.<br />
They generally about 3 hours a day. You’ll want to keep your plants as close to the window as you can, but be careful not to let them get sunburned if the light from the window gets too hot. This tends to happen most with south facing windows (which tend to get the most light if you’re in the northern hemisphere). I’ve kept my succulents in an east facing window, right up against the window, and they have done really well. If your succulents aren’t getting enough light they will start to stretch. colourful Echeverias are especially prone to stretching indoors. If there isn’t anywhere that gets brighter light (or more hours of light), don’t worry! After it get’s too stretchy for your taste, just cut off the top and propagate it! The bonus is that you’ll also get more plants :)<br />

<b>WATER LESS</b> :-This is only true during the winter months of growing your succulents indoors. If you are growing succulents indoors during the summer, just water as normal, waiting for the soil to dry out before you water again. During the winter though, succulents don’t need very much water at all. Since they are dormant, they aren’t growing and they don’t use up as much water. I generally water my indoor succulents about every 2 weeks in the monsoon. Many people recommend even less, but I’ve found that having the heater in my house running tends to dry out the succulents pretty quickly. Just keep an eye on the soil. You’ll want to let it dry out completely and then give it about a week before you water again.Here is a little secret, just like all plants, eventually the lower leaves of succulents are going to shrivel up and die. You should only be concerned about dying leaves if the newest or uppermost leaves on your succulent are shriveling. If it’s just the ones near the bottom of the stem (closest to the soil), you don’t have anything to worry about!<br />

Succulents should be potted in a fast-draining mixture that's designed for cacti and succulents. If you don't have access to a specialized mix, considering modifying a normal potting mix with an inorganic agent like perlite to increase aeration and drainage. These plants generally have shallow roots that form a dense mat just under the soil surface.<br />
<br />
<b>Fertilizer</b>:
During the summer growing season, fertilizer as you would with other houseplants. Stop fertilizing entirely during the winter.</div>

The Nursery retail scene in Mumbai has evolved over the years of lately iv noticed a trend where most old time nurserymen in the city were either disgruntle or shutting shop i often found myself wondering why these amazingly knowledgable , some extremely talented people absolute legends of the field i cant stress this enough people who have been in the line for 50-70 years have just suddenly shut shop...<br />
I sat talking over a cup of tea to one of these guys and he exclaimed " the property rates are through the roof....the #BMC is only out there to harass us fineing us at the drop of a hat ...while doling out hawking licences to every tom dick and harry with a bihari surname and a political linq " yes i do think that was a bit over the top but last few months i decided to take a closer what i saw i was horrified !!!<br />
I suddenly have seen a spurt of these hawkers on pavements , cycles with carts/cycles , selling plants .Plants with huge hibiscus flowers ,deep red roses and tulsi....oh so many tulsi....and a few other basic varieties. So i met this hawker and struck up a conversation learnt quite a few things that completely surprised me here is what i learnt :-<br />
<br />
1)<b> The Water</b> :- Im sure most of you know one of the essential things a plant needs for its well being is water . The Roadside nursery guys find it extremely difficult to get hold of clean water as they basically reside in slums and shanties around their display so what they do is use sewage water either from the drains , storm water drains or worse still shulabh shauchalayas !!! (public toilets) How can you spot this ...look at the top soil of the plants you are buying...its either going to be dark brown or a black .<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOSp2Li6LjZXy3ravN4FXNTC9Ydt5gZYO2ISvyVHCCRpRYJXDyZtcvVok4R3DPMbP2youIOMZQIegSzFlKZ7qfkNXcFxsL5g1xd5exXUthghM5FsOfyFni4PsPOQEfHk-8FbJJRbM0o6fv/s1600/hawker.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOSp2Li6LjZXy3ravN4FXNTC9Ydt5gZYO2ISvyVHCCRpRYJXDyZtcvVok4R3DPMbP2youIOMZQIegSzFlKZ7qfkNXcFxsL5g1xd5exXUthghM5FsOfyFni4PsPOQEfHk-8FbJJRbM0o6fv/s200/hawker.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
2) <b>The Traveling plants </b>:- These guys are essentially traders they dont grow absolutely anything travel to other nurseries in packs of 4-5 buy plants and sell them on a premium ...bot they do not have space to store or keep these plants when they come into the city so most of them are kept very small spaces. Now the main issue here is the guys who roam around in the hot sun with carts full of plants...yes the flowers are big and showie yes its convenient to just call out and buy a plant off this guy but do they last ? answer is no they never last cause the plants undergo severe scorching in all this travel .....dust ,car smoke ,loss of water , etc etc these plants may look to have a flower but its going to fall of the very ext day !!! .<br />
<br />
3) <b>The chemicals </b>:- These guys who sell these plants are uneducated and basically they know 1 thing that you will buy the plant only if it has a flower or a fruit on it.So they will basically spray absolutely anything to make the plants flower not realising the plants will have a severely reduced lifespan. The plant will be like one of those bodybuilders who are on steroids the moment you stop all sorts of problems ensue.<br />
<br />
4) <b>The Varieties </b>:- There are billions of species of plants one more beautiful than the other the hawkers just sell a small fraction of the vast offerings of nature . They do not know their proper names or their proper upkeep or what biodiversity means (or for that mater how it spells).v seen indoor plants being sold as outdoor plants , a guava tree sold as a jamun its appalling .They get in all these random invasive plants that do not do any good for our environment basically anything that has a flower on it they will sell ( iv seen so many of these sell white oleander which is highly poisonous).<br />
<br />
5) <b>The Maintaince</b> :- These guys will tell you anything to sell the plants . Everything will be easy to maintain and everything will be perennially flowering and everything will need basic khaad and mitti and all diseases will be cured by rogor or bavistin...these guys will say anything to make a sale.<br />
<br />
<br />
Know better guys go down to your local nurseries most of these will have way better quality of plants they will have better varieties and better info on the plants you buy.<br />

Through discovered in Brazil these plants are originally from Costa Rica.<br />

In nature there are about 50 species each of Cattleya from Central America, growing through the Amazon region to the south of Brazil.Their distinctive flowers and the tendency of these plants to grow in large colonies has meant that they have been vigorously over-collected and the status of many is endangered.What amazes me even more is how these beautiful orchids made the north east of india its home and are growing there literally on every tree!!! I first came across this guy in a trade fare i dint think they would do well in mumbai weather but me being me i just had to buy a few.We took them to the nursery and placed them all on various growing mediums in various different conditions what i saw amazed me.The plants that were planted in soil ,coal,red manure,cocopiet,vermicompost slowly began to wither and i assumed these wouldn't work for mumbai weather.A while later i happen to spot 4-5 of these guys growing beautifully at the farm the workers had left a few of them aside near a some fire wood and these orchids had caught on beautifully!!! i immediately understood these guys were epiphytes (<span style="background-color: #faf9f0; color: #361909; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"><u>Epiphytes are plants that live on other plants but are traditionally classified as non-parasitic )</u></span><br />

A few months later a client met me.,he came to us with a strange request saying that he wanted to have plants in his home but without soil...as he had a terrible allergy to dust and wasn't very fond of insects and all the "eeww" things that came with it.I presented several ideas to him from making insect repellant soil to having a hydrophonic garden but somehow nothing stuck....then while presenting to him i had some what of a eureka moment !!! AN EPIPHYTIC GARDEN i said thinking aloud ....n he kinda got intrigued by the idea so we decided to finally do it....<br />
<br />
What transpired then was an epic 2 months of frantic collecting of orchids as many colours i could get my hands on as many different species played with the aromas and in the heart of mumbai we made a completely soilless garden!!!<br />
I must admit though cateleyas were a big part we used plants like stag horn ferns spanish moss vandas(i stole from my wifes grand moms place) during this process i absolutely fell in love with this plant something about the flowers the plant the aroma just got me hooked,iv got more than 12 carities and must have clocked more than a 1000 pics of these guys here are some of the best ones :-<br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Cattleya's can be among the easiest plants to grow </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px; font-weight: bold;">
Light</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px;">
Because Cattleya's grow high in the trees they require strong light with some direct sun. Their foliage should be rigid and medium to light green in color. If the leaves are dark green and floppy, the plant isn't getting enough light. If your plant refuses to bloom, it's probably not getting enough light! </div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial; font-size: 13px;">
On the other hand, if the leaves are hard and yellowish the plant is probably getting too much sun. In your home, Cattleya's prefer the spot nearest an east or west window. Without additional lighting, north facing windows just won't do. In Northern climates, Cattleya's will thrive outside on the patio during the summer months. When outside, always remember to protect your plants from the hot mid-day sun.</div>

With so much misinformation out there about food and how it affects human health, making healthy food choices for you and your family can be difficult and confusing. There are a number of specific foods; however, that you will want to avoid in almost every circumstance because they provide virtually no health benefits while posing plenty of health risks. Here are nine foods you should never eat again if you care about preserving your long-term health:<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJnwQbFH6Rq_FWZNhaC-jrrpwHSOoW5SqyCHIKiEBg_ZFj0IISmuZMCS2flcYxqwQvVK9m5CXFO5Wy9NPqpCVruxHYISM680OAPJGdzoDirdDlCoOOtOZFX1voxrMxPig33rX9nRdr3PRW/s1600/0b4fa22bb55c4d68b7fe88d446788dcc.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJnwQbFH6Rq_FWZNhaC-jrrpwHSOoW5SqyCHIKiEBg_ZFj0IISmuZMCS2flcYxqwQvVK9m5CXFO5Wy9NPqpCVruxHYISM680OAPJGdzoDirdDlCoOOtOZFX1voxrMxPig33rX9nRdr3PRW/s1600/0b4fa22bb55c4d68b7fe88d446788dcc.jpg" height="150" width="200" /></a><span style="text-align: left;">1) White bread, refined flours. By definition, white bread and refined flours in general are toxic for your body because they have been stripped of virtually all vitamins, minerals, fiber, and other important nutrients. Because of this, the body does not know how to properly digest and assimilate these so-called foods, which can lead to health problems. Refined white flour has also been bleached with chlorine and brominated with bromide, two poisonous chemicals that have been linked to causing thyroid and organ damage. </span></div>
<br />

Most conventionally-prepared frozen meals are loaded with preservatives, processed salt, hydrogenated oils and other artificial ingredients, not to mention the fact that most frozen meals have been heavily pre-cooked, rendering their nutrient content minimal at best (especially after getting microwaved again at home). With the exception of a few truly healthy frozen meal brands such as Amy’s and Organic Bistro, most frozen meals are little more than disease in a box, so avoid them in favor of fresh foods.<br />

3) White rice. Like white bread, white rice has been stripped of most of its nutrients, and separated from the bran and germ, two natural components that make up rice in its brown form. Even so-called “fortified” white rice is nutritionally deficient, as the body still processes this refined food much differently than brown rice, which is absorbed more slowly and does not cause the same spike in blood sugar that white rice does.<br />

4) Microwaveable popcorn. This processed food is a favorite among moviegoers and regular snackers alike, but it is one of the unhealthiest foods you can eat. Practically every component of microwaveable popcorn, from the genetically-modified (GM) corn kernels to the processed salt and preservative chemicals used to enhance its flavor, is unhealthy and disease-promoting. On top of this, microwaveable popcorn contains a chemical known as diacetyl that can actually destroy your lungs. If you love popcorn, stick with organic kernels that you can pop yourself in a kettle and douse with healthy ingredients like coconut oil, grass-fed butter, and Himalayan pink salt.<br />

5) Cured meat products with nitrates, nitrites. Deli meats, summer sausage, hot dogs, bacon, and many other meats sold at the grocery store are often loaded with sodium nitrite and other chemical preservatives that have been linked to causing heart disease and cancer. If you eat meat, stick with uncured, nitrite and nitrate-free varieties, and preferably those that come from organic, grass-fed animals.<br />

6) Most conventional protein, energy bars. By the way they are often marketed, it might seem as though protein and energy bars are a strong addition to a healthy diet. But more often than not, these meal replacements contain processed soy protein, refined sugar, hydrogenated fat, and other harmful additives that contribute to chronic illness. Not all protein and energy bars are bad, of course — Thunderbird Energetica, Organic Food Bar, Boku Superfood, Vega Sport, PROBAR, and Zing all make healthy protein and energy bars. Just be sure to read the ingredient labels and know what you are buying.<br />

7) Margarine. Hidden in all sorts of processed foods, margarine, a hydrogenated trans-fat oil, is something you will want to avoid at all costs for your health. Contrary to popular belief, butter and saturated fats in general are not unhealthy, especially when they are derived from pastured animals that feed on grass rather than corn and soy. And if animal-based fats are not for you, stick with extra-virgin coconut oil or olive oil rather than margarine.<br />

8) Soy milk and soy-based meat substitutes. One of the biggest health frauds of modern times, the soy craze is a fad that you will want to skip. Besides the fact that nearly all non-organic soy ingredients are of GM origin, most soy additives are processed using a toxic chemical known as hexane, which is linked to causing birth defects, reproductive problems, and cancer. Soy that has not been fermented is also highly estrogenic, which can throw your natural hormone balance out of whack.<br />

Many so-called “diet” products on the market today contains artificial sweeteners like aspartame (Equal) and sucralose (Splenda), both of which are linked to causing neurological damage, gastrointestinal problems, and endocrine disruption. Many diet products also contain added chemical flavoring agents to take the place of fat and other natural components that have been removed to artificially reduce calorie content. Instead, stick with whole foods that are as close to nature as possible, including high-fat foods grown the way nature intended, and your body will respond surprisingly well. </div>

Yea catchy title right but i guess it fits right...back in the early 90s when mediocre films were ruling the roost my dad was a struggling little nurseryman in the city of dreams...what happened next would change the direction of the nursery completely...from a nursery that aspired to make and sell plants right in the heart of the city we became what id like to call "Overnight Gardeners"

My dad 1st met some amazing old time art directors ....from the legendary R.Varman to the sublime Sameer Chanda (one of my fav)...he worked with the likes of Nitin Desai Sudendu Roy satish chipkar and the list went on.there were some hilarious movies he worked on from the David Dhavan flicks to mahesh bhatt movies of the 90s I distinctly remembering playing cricket on the sets of Om Jai Jadeesh (hahahha) me and an old friend going to the sets of kano na pyaar hai(we were terrified of this back up dancer with a purple wig and big glasses)so ya basically a large part of my childhood i spent running wild on the sets of 90s bollywood movies.<br />
Over the years the mantle was passed down to mom who took the industry by storm with her ikebana arrangements....so basically post 1999 almost all the grand weddings you saw in movies...the flowers were arranged my mom...<br />

Ya now don't really look at shah rum and shushmitas expressions look at the flowers all around...back in the day when every movie had 2 have a wedding song and dance mom was right there decorating them sets which some amazing flower arrangements.At times as large 30FT tall cause "Madam ji yeh international shade hai....US of america mien ek dum grand Shadi" yea we get these kinds of references.<br />
Come to this day most of the art directors of today be it the amazingly sweet Rajat podar(barfee,city lights,etc etc) Narendra Rahuekar(chennai express,singham) Jayant Deshmukh(Ram Leela etc etc) shamishta roy(all your dharma movies) Sabu cyril(ra one,krish,om shanti om) Mustapha dada (yahaan) Sunil babu(english vinglish)Sunil nigvekar(all your RGV movies) washik khan(dabang movies)....once again the list goes on n on n on but what remains constant is their landscape guys...heres some of our latest work <br />

So while we were greening up the large screens we also worked extensively on television...from old school soaps to new reality shows they all took plants from us yes all your "K serials the endless mahabhart remakes from the b.r chopra one to the ekta kapoor one all had our plants...not to mention C.I.D man these guys have been my favourite customers they have been hiring out a fixed 45 plants for 15 days a month for the last 12 years!!!now isn't that some thing :-)<br />
<br />
Whats awesome about these sets is that i get to really test myself i 12 hours to set up huge spaces working round the clock with 50-60 workers to instruct over a microphone...absolutely love it. The nursery gets strange requests at times "sir we need 1 truck of dry leaves" or "sir do u have dead plants we need to show explosion" or the funniest one i just got "sir i want to show switzland koi english jhaadi hai kia...i was like wtf" as quirky and funny this land of bollywood is its an absolute pleasure to work in you get to meet some amazing people eat some tasty food and travel the length and breath of the country for free!!! </div>

Or how about Epsom salt to grow healthier tomatoes? You are sitting on a gold mine of resources in your kitchen that can be re-purposed or recycled to benefit your garden. The best part is that you are eliminating the use of dangerous chemicals, while saving money, and not harming the environment.

Vinegar is a great substitute for the toxic and persistent glyphosate. Add a little dish soap with pure vinegar in a spray bottle and apply during the heat of the day. If you find that your kitchen vinegar just won’t cut the tough weeds, you can purchase a horticultural grade vinegar with a higher concentration of acetic acid and apply it the same way.

Cayenne Pepper or red chili pepper; if you are using whole peppers combine a half cup chopped peppers and two cups of water in a blender and pour the liquid into a spray bottle, add a tbsp. of liquid soap to help the spray “stick” to the plants. If you are using the powder form of pepper, substitute 2 tbsp for the half cup. Remember that this is not a selective pesticide, meaning it can harm beneficial insects too, so be sure and only use it if you have a major problem.

Don’t put down that vinegar just yet. If your acid loving plants, like azaleas or gardenias are looking a little yellow, mix 2 tbsp of vinegar to 1 quart of water and pour at the base of the plant. Repeating this process every two weeks should turn that yellow to green.

Epsom salt is a natural mineral, discovered in the well water of Epsom, England, and has been used for hundreds of years. It is magnesium sulfate which stimulates root growth in plants, especially tomatoes. Add a teaspoon to the hole when planting and presto, super tomatoes. The magnesium is critical for seed germination and the production of chlorophyll, fruit, and nuts. Magnesium helps strengthen cell walls and improves plants’ uptake of nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur. As an added bonus, a little pinch will also deter squirrels from digging up bulbs in your flower garden.

Don’t spray or pour those broad spectrum pesticides all over the place, these are particularly persistent and harmful to humans and animals, as well as all insects, beneficial and not. Simply boil some water and dump on the mound, the ants die instantly. Be sure to boil enough water so you can keep pouring until you reach the queen.

Don’t put those orange peels in the compost pile just yet. Throw equal parts orange peels and water into the blender and puree. Voila, instant ant killer, that won’t kill you.

Don’t dump out that last bit of coffee that you didn’t finish, throw it in a spray bottle and spray your plants to naturally deter slugs and snails. Also, you can make a slug “fence” around the garden with the grounds. This is a double bonus because as the coffee grounds deter slugs, they are also a great addition to soil and earthworms love them!

<br /></div>With all the reports of raised levels of radiation, not only in Japan, but in the US as well, one would do well to steer clear of vegetables and fruits sourced from Japan. Reports out of Japan are showing some freakish floral and plant reactions to the radiation leakage spawned from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster that occurred in early 2011.

The ideas in it are so challenging that it took me a long time to get through it when I first read it some years ago. I had to stop frequently to reread and think about the ideas. It basically asks questions about the meaning of animate life. What is alive” and how does it differ from “not alive?” It delves into the controversial idea that plants can “feel,” but that is just the beginning of what you learn about plants in this book. Can your kindly thoughts directed at a plant make it grow faster? There is a large body of evidence that says yes to this.
The authors have developed a cult following since publishing this book in 1973 and they have written other books together and individually that deal with alternate history or speculative science.
The Secret Life of Plants discusses unorthodox ways of increasing the yield from seeds, including strange ways to irradiate fields (with radio waves, sound, etc.) and how to find natural resources by dowsing, an ancient practice known to the Chinese, Hindus, Egyptians, Greeks, Romans and others. Dowsing involved pointing a stick or “divining rod” at the earth and waiting for it to indicate (by pointing downward) where some desired substance (water, oil, etc.) can be found. That is amazing enough, but some dowsers have dispensed with going outside and instead point their rod at a map. Astonishing as it may seem, here is one account from the book concerning Henry Gross, an American dowser: “Sitting at his kitchen table, he pinpointed on a map of the British-governed island of Bermuda, on which no source of water had been found, just those spots where he said drilling would produce it. To everyone’s amazement, Gross was correct.”
Is there an unknown energy field that pervades everything (the ether or the orgone)? How does life get started and how is it connected to the spirit? What is the connection between plants and man? Can plants transmute one element into another? A man named Kervran who you will meet in this book says they can. You’ll learn about radionics which holds that all matter, animate or inanimate, radiates and absorbs energy. This energy can transfer positive or negative thoughts and feelings to an object. This is how someone’s negative -- or positive -- thoughts can lodge in an object and affect the energy level of whoever has the object.
You learn of the work of people like Jagada Chandra Bose and Luther Burbank who investigated the mystery of life through studying plants. In many ways, plants behave much like animals. They are alive in much the same way, but they are rooted to one spot and have no power of speech to communicate with humans. But there are people who have made connections with them, even traveled mystically through the stems and cells of plants, becoming one with them. Isn’t all life unified? Why shouldn’t we be able to communicate with plants?
You will learn a new respect for soil and never, ever think of it as “dirt” again. Soil is the stuff of life that nourishes plants and you learn that it can be self-renewing. Modern farming ruins the soil with chemicals rather than encouraging natural enrichment. The book contains much detail about the composition of healthy soil and how to keep it healthy. The food chain is an interesting aspect of physical life and why and how it exists is an open question for the seeker. If you are a vegetarian out of compassion for animals, how do you deal with the information that plants too have feelings? Why is our world set up so that some live at the expense of others?
Consider the following quote from Luther Burbank (who Paramahansa Yogananda, a close friend, considered a “saint” -- this was from a speech in which Burbank promised to “tell all” about how he could be so successful at creating new species of plants):
“In pursuing the study of any of the universal and everlasting laws of nature, whether relating to the life, growth, structure and movement of a giant planet, the tiniest plant or the psychological movements of the human brain, some conditions are necessary before we can become one of nature’s interpreters or the creator of any valuable work for the world. Preconceived notions, dogmas, and all personal prejudice and bias must be laid aside. Listen patiently, quietly and reverently to the lessons, one by one, which Mother Nature has to teach, shedding light on that which before was a mystery, so that all who will may see or know. She conveys her truths only to those who are passive and receptive.”
Can matter be created out of nothing? Do matter and energy interchange naturally in ways we don’t understand? What is radiation and how does it affect plant life? Why and how does dowsing work? This book deals with these matters and raises many questions, along with suggesting provocative answers. Much of the information here might be termed pseudo-science but the people whose ideas are presented here were not crackpots or crazies. This book is not new -- my copy has 1972 on it -- and the ideas are still controversial. But I think it is well worth reading. Investigations into the ery meaning of “alive” are surely relevant to the Big Question of who we really areShaan Lalwanihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10097885506696025516noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636083214788214300.post-48458263251108550572013-06-17T15:05:00.000+05:302013-06-17T22:04:45.076+05:308 super foods that u can grow in your garden!!!! You can easily grow superfoods in your garden and quickly prepare and serve them in minutes. Superfoods are high in nutritional value and provide important chemical compounds—called phytochemicals—that fight disease and improve health.
Superfoods have been around for thousands of years, but the term has gained popularity over the past two decades. Superfoods from the garden include blueberries, broccoli, kale, spinach, tomatoes, walnuts, and more. Other superfoods include salmon, soy, green tea, turkey, and yogurt.
Superfoods, among other benefits, can lower cholesterol, reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer, and improve your mood and emotional well-being.
Most superfoods can be eaten raw out of hand though you may find a few tastier with just a bit of preparation—such as steaming or stir-frying. But, in the end, superfoods require very little kitchen time.

Use basil fresh or dried to add a mild, sweet flavor to soups, salads, stews, fish, meat, and sauces. Use mint fresh or dried to flavor vegetables and add fresh mint to cold and hot soups and beverages.
Basil and mint aid digestion and diminish inflammation.
Basil and mint are also strong sources of luteolin, which many boost the immune system.

Grow them in a sunny location in sandy, well-drained that can stay moist. Allow 4 feet between plants. Choose rabbit-eye varieties where winters are not very cold.
mulberries rank among the top disease-fighting foods; blueberries contain anthocyanin an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory that fights Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, diabetes, and heart disease.
A diet high in mulberries may reduce a woman’s risk of heart attack by 33 percent and stave off memory loss by several years.

Serve carrots raw or cooked. Allow 30 days for sweet baby carrots and 50 to 80 days to reach full size and maturity.
Recent studies say one carrot a day can cut the rate of lung cancer in half (first, stop smoking).
Carrots are high in carotenoids, antioxidant compounds, associated with a decrease in bladder, cervix, prostate, colon, and larynex and esophageal cancer.
Carrots are an excellent source of lutein and zeaxanthin, two carotenoids that work together to protect eye health.
Three medium carrots contain 60 mg of calcium, 586 mg of potassium, and 30,000 IUs of vitamin A

Sweet potatoes are grown from rooted cuttings called “slips.” From transplanting sweet potatoes are ready for harvest in about 100 days. Serve sweet potatoes cooked; boiled and mashed sweet potatoes will be extra smooth.
Sweet potatoes contain vitamins A and B6 and potassium that helps protect the immune system and regulate blood pressure.
When eaten with the skins, sweet potatoes have more fiber than a cup of oatmeal.

Check the variety you purchase; June-bearing strawberries produce one crop a year in late spring or early summer; ever-bearing strawberries peak in early summer and then continue to bear through autumn.
Strawberries contain chemicals found to protect cells against cervical and breast cancer; phytochemicals in strawberries can inhibit steps in tumor initiation.
Compounds in strawberries may protect the brain from short-term memory loss.
Strawberries contain anthocyanins that can inhibit pain and inflammation signals associated with arthritis.

Known as the “blending’ herb because it pulls flavors together. Use leaves with slow-cooked beef, pork, poultry, seafood, soups, stews, and in bouquet garni.
Thyme in tincture form can be used to fight bacteria; thyme’s fragrant oil called thymol is a powerful antiseptic, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory agent. Use thyme to aid digestion and dislodge mucus coating of the intestinal track.Shaan Lalwanihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10097885506696025516noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636083214788214300.post-28756930328484419242013-03-29T15:15:00.000+05:302013-03-29T15:15:50.109+05:30Sogestu School Flower Exhibition( mumbai) jan 2013/14<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

Driving round the city iv come across a large number of dead barks of trees paying homage to its once glorious self..iv highlighted the impotence of the BMC in several of my previous article...the tree authority is a sham ...a body that was made to protect trees has committed itself to destroying the last few green lungs that the city has left.Tree Authority of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation gave the green signal to cut 2,000 trees for several infrastructure projects in the city, and transplantation of 2,000.<br />

<span style="text-align: left;">Set up to protect and preserve the city's green cover, the Authority-comprising politicians, bureaucrats and tree experts-has according to environmentalists become more of a mute spectator in its depletion, granting chopping orders without checking whether replanting or transplanting is being followed. Reasons given for the green slaughter range from road-widening to private projects most of them malls,showrooms etc....The BMC Tree Census Says Mumbai’s Green Population Has Doubled From 9.5 Lakh In 1998 To 19 Lakh Now. But What Else Can You Expect, Ask Environmentalists, When Even Weeds And Dead Trees Are Counted And Parameters Are Changed To Inflate Figures</span></div>
How happy were you when you got to know some fancy clothing brand opened a huge outlet in your vicinity?...did you think it was awesome that an electronic mega store put 1000 plasma tvs on its wall beside your house? but spare a thought for the once majestic green being who held its ground for decades before money hungry cooperates mercilessly poisoned it...! it's a rather sickening feel to look at trees that have turned black shorn of the green. The colour of the wood is weather beaten and there are several of them standing dead scattered all around the city.<br />
in this article ill share a some sad images of trees murdered in front of some popular shopping destinations in Mumbai:-<br />

1)<b>The Honda showroom</b>: (opp Lakshmi industrial estate): This car showroom on the main linq road near Lokhandwala has 3-4 shinny cars majestically parked on little podiums behind a big glass wall...soon after opening up they realized that two coconut trees in front of their showroom was blocking the traffic from getting a clear view of their cars....on the pretext to trimming the coconuts were topped off ruthlessly .2 trees that stood their ground for the last quarter of a century were suddenly in the dark of the night <b>"trimmed"</b><br />

2)<b>Sony Mony (irla,vile parle w showroom)</b>:when this massive electronic mega store in Mumbai opened its shutters so close to my house i admit i was happy....but wad followed was a series of events that can only be termed sad.A huge rain tree graced the pavement in front of the mall...and even with their 1000 lcd tvs and fancy boards visibility of the shop was marred by the presence of this grand tree....and once again in the dead of the night the tree was destroyed...the roots burnt off with some acid and now on every festival green lights are wrapped around the dead bark of this tree to get people into the festive spirits.<br />

6)<b>Vashi railway station premises & Raghuleela mall</b> where two dead palm trees and another one on the side road with several others portray a saga of destruction that has not been noticed by the civic body, and not taken care of. The approach has been rather heartless to remove natives and plant fresh expensive ones from some random south Indian villages.<br />

People are always looking for the best foods for weight loss. Losing weight isn’t just about calories. It’s about the kind of food we eat, the exercise we endure, the overall lifestyles we adopt. Rather than starving ourselves (which actually negatively affects metabolism, resulting in fat retention), we benefit more from eating healthful, natural foods.
There is a cruel world out there that sets us these extremely high standards of what is attractive what is not..fliverous diet plants,foolish crash diets all end up hammering your system beyond repair.We have gyms that have turned into fashion shows for women and a grunting squirming testosterone hubs for men....and though physical exercise is important these places have totally lost the plot.All day we have adverts of energy drinks,energy bars ,gmo food baked chips...blah blah blah all over is it rely that hard to eat healthy, @vriksha we beg to differ.

1)<b>Watermelons</b>:
Watermelon extract lowers blood pressure and hypertension, which can result from obesity and excess belly fat. A University of Kentucky study found that animals experiencing diet-induced high cholesterol given watermelon juice lost more abdominal fat than animals fed the same diet but with water.

2)<b>Avocados</b>:
Though often shunned by dieters for being high in fat, avocados are full of good fats, like healthy omega-3 fatty acids and monounsaturated fat, as well as potassium and the amino acid lecithin, which helps with liver function.

3)<b>Turmeric</b>
Often touted for its anti-cancer and antioxidant properties, turmeric and curcumin are also powerful allies in healthy fat loss. Over 13 peer-reviewed studies conclude that turmeric and curcumin consumption is directly linked to healthy degrees of fat loss and healthy insulin function. One study from the Xi’an Jiaotog University School of Medicine found that curcumin decreased levels of insulin and leptin resistance caused by a high fat diet.
The health benefits of turmeric are also some you will not want to miss.

4)<b>Chocolate</b>:
Is chocolate good for you? It may sound surprising, but chocolate actually rests among the best foods for weight loss. Everybody can rejoice in the fact that moderate intake of chocolate is actually a good way to help with weight loss (and still get a sweet tooth fix). A 2008 study published in the Journal of Nutrition says that eating small amounts of chocolate reduced systolic blood pressure and bad cholesterol by 5.3 percent Just be sure that your snack of choice is butter- or coconut-oil based rather than hydrogenated vegetable fats. Natural sugars as opposed to high fructose corn syrup and GMO beet sugar are preferred.

5)<b>Tomatoes</b>:
Tomatoes contain a compound called 9-oxo-octadecadienoic (or 9-oxo-ODA for the impatient), which affects blood lipids, too much of which can cause high blood cholesterol Dr. Teruo Kawada, the lead author of the study that identified the compound, says that “finding a compound which helps the prevention of obesity-related chronic diseases in food stuff is a great advantage to tackling these diseases, and tomato allows people to manate the onset of dyslipedemia [high cholesterol] through their daily diet.”

6)<b>Celery:</b>
It actually takes more calories to eat celery than you gain from it, which results in simple fat loss for celery lovers. Additionally, celery is high in vitamin C, calcium, and apigenin, a compound that reduces risk of ovarian cancer.While these are some of the best foods for weight loss, there a number of other foods to boost metabolism and accelerate fat loss.

7) <b>Chillies</b> :
Foods containing chillies are said to be as foods that burn fat. Chillies contain capsaicin that helps in increasing the metabolism. Capsaicin is a thermogenic food, so it causes the body to burn calories for 20 minutes after you eat the chillies.

8)<b>Curry leaves</b> :
Incorporating curry leaves into your daily diet can help you lose weight. These leaves flush out fat and toxins, reducing fat deposits that are stored in the body, as well as reducing bad cholesterol levels. If you are overweight, incorporate eight to 10 curry leaves into your diet daily. Chop them finely and mix them into a drink, or sprinkle them over a meal.

there are hoardings bigger than the hills one more ridiculous than the other the little villages have turned into second home projects concrete structures the rivulets have been paved and the once stunning countryside has been devastated by the developers developing the land.but here today I'm just gona try to show u what an eyesore these hoardings are...<br />
The expressway is a 93km long stretch and when last counted there were 1550 hoardings!!! apron 17 huge hoardings every 1 km.the sad part is when the villagers by the road suffer from 15-18hrs of load shedding(no electricity) huge halogens highlight these monstrosities.<br />

a mountain is carved out to "create" Asia's largest hoarding ...the sad part is the company that made this hoarding is a landscape firm...maybe thats why i don't see eye to eye with the older generation on "landscape designers" that are out there...there are hoarding after hoarding of eco projects green buildings nature complexes blah blah blah....what a load of crap this is by making a garden with a lawn and palms dosent make ur complex eco friendly!! <br />
The divider landscapes though i must say have steadily improved there are some absolutely stunning palms used,the plumerias are stunning too...the ticomas,thivetias....kudos the the hundreds and hundreds of maintaince workers who in their high visibility jackets work in the scorching sun and the pouring rain.<br />
this is just a rant...im irritated tired and frustrated cause on the road cause its impossible to click the landscape without stopping at the side one of my most fav drives been reduced my ignorant money hungry co operates to this....makes me truly sad...here are some of the hoardings i clicked:<br />

The per sq ft prices are sky rocketing and the space for our plants have become lesser than ever...10 plants in our balcony is all the green we have in our home spaces.and to actually have a composting bin for 10 plants is ludicris to say the least...lemme list out my problems with home composting for you:-<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYgBv4czf1_nKFBx4dnnoj3kEuTh4Q46_JW1fRu3V3O3TZ4aCL3Ur3MCmgTfguz5sraFSn8121BQwFzMDS-QQD7lpPR6mZGt4_8RA670SfE4Ubb-zK746tkW-PtfLEqORheXfMnGAOhRy4/s1600/Compost_bin_cutaway_by_Bruce_McAdam.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:right; float:right; margin-left:1em; margin-bottom:1em"><img border="0" height="400" width="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYgBv4czf1_nKFBx4dnnoj3kEuTh4Q46_JW1fRu3V3O3TZ4aCL3Ur3MCmgTfguz5sraFSn8121BQwFzMDS-QQD7lpPR6mZGt4_8RA670SfE4Ubb-zK746tkW-PtfLEqORheXfMnGAOhRy4/s400/Compost_bin_cutaway_by_Bruce_McAdam.jpg" /></a></div>1)Quantity:We live in a day where i get people in the nursery who add manure to their plants every week iv heard some absolutely hilarious stories of how people advised them two table spoons twice a week with neem water and some other stinky stuff...plants are simple beings and plants in mumbai homes do not need so much fuss if u do the basics right they will thrive.Add manure ice a month or for some plants even less frequent to keep them in best health.Always remember if to little is bad...to much is devastating! <br />
<br />
2)Space:Whether you are using a commercially available bin or just starting your own compost pile, you will need to devote some of your home to compost. While aesthetics are not as important to some people than others, a pile of compost or a big bin can stand out in a green space that has your food,flowers and greens.and the idea of a compost pit so near to ur food plants is simply repelling! If you have big bungalows with a large yard you could possibly consider making ur bins in a far corner out of sight but its simply not practical to keep em in our little homes.<br />
<br />
3)The emissions: We keep plants in our homes not just for the aesthetics but for the aroma of the flowers..the continuous supply of clean fresh oxygen.As things rot and decay, they emit a bad odor. Even though most compost bins are self-contained units, there is the chance the stench of the composing food and plant matter will emit into your home. One way to cut down on the smell is make sure food items are buried deep into the compost or just don't compost food at all, a compost pit at home may enable you to transform your house waste into free fertilizers but did u know Carbon dioxide (CO2 ), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) are all by-products of the composting process.<br />
4)Pests: the pile/pit/bin of composting is a hot bed for pest rats,bugs,roaches,mosquitoes.....and i know people will tell u otherwise(i speak from experience on my farm we have a huge composting pit...far away from the house )Mice may make beds in compost piles, but placing the pile away from buildings helps prevent any issues with the rodents. Enclosing the pile prevents many pests from entering the bin. Also, avoid adding meat or dairy to the pile. These items not only smell as they decompose, they also attract nuisance stray animals <br />
<br />
5)Time: Elaborate recipes ,turning ,tumbling, adding, subtracting ,cleaning....blah blah blah blah...ur gardening ur not making a master chef recipe for heavens sake keep it simple who has the time in this city to do all this i own more than 25,000 plants in the nursery and more than 1,00,000 on the farm and i don't do have any recipe for my compost.On the farm we have workers who regularly water the pile and turn them...thats it! green leaves and vegetable waste is all we add.<br />

<strike></strike>WHAT NOT TO COMPOST: here is a list of things you seriously need to avoid in ur composting bins!<br />
<br />
1)<i>Cooking oil</i>: Smells like food to animal and insect visitors. It can also upset the compost's moisture balance.<br />
<br />
2)<i>Diseased plants</i>: Trash them, instead. You don't want to transfer fungal or bacterial problems to whatever ends up growing in your finished compost.<br />
<br />
3)<i>Heavily coated or printed paper</i>: This is a long list, including magazines, catalogs, printed cards and most printed or metallic wrapping paper. Foils don't break down, and you don't need a bunch of exotic printing chemicals in your compost.<br />
<br />
4)<i>Human or animal feces</i>: Too much of a health risk. This includes kitty litter. Waste and bedding from non-carnivorous pets should be fine.<br />
<br />
5)<i>Meat products</i>: This includes bones, blood, fish and animal fats. Another pest magnet.<br />
<br />
6)<i>Milk products</i>: Refrain from composting milk, cheese, yogurt and cream. While they'll certainly degrade, they are attractive to pests.<br />
<br />
7)<i>Rice</i>: Cooked rice is unusually fertile breeding ground for the kinds of bacteria that you don't want in your pile. Raw rice attracts varmints.<br />
<br />
8)Sawdust: So tempting. But unless you know the wood it came from was untreated, stay away.<br />
<br />
9)<i>Stubborn garden plants</i>: weeds which will probably regard your compost heap as a great place to grow, rather than decompose.<br />
<br />
10)<i>Used personal products</i>: Tampons, diapers and items soiled in human blood or fluids are a health risk.<br />
<br />
11)<i>Pizza boxes</i>: Too much grease. While some compost enthusiasts steer clear of adding pizza box cardboard to their pile, others report no problems. It's that or the trash.<br />
<br />
12)<i>Medical waste</i>: Syringes, tubing, scalpels and other biohazards should be disposed as such.<br />
<br />

<b>Community composting</b>:Composting in the city has huge scopes if housing societies take to them in a big way in a far flung corner of the building you could compost successfully.let every1 contribute separate bio degradable and non bio degradable waste keep glass bottles separately then and only then is composting a good idea in the city. Educate the residents on the benefits but alo tell them the disadvantages i know every1 wants to make a difference but doing it the right way is important.For any guidance help in setting up community compost bins feel free to contact us here at vriksha.Shaan Lalwanihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10097885506696025516noreply@blogger.com15tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636083214788214300.post-36157511081963681062012-07-13T12:57:00.000+05:302012-07-13T12:57:08.842+05:30Carnivorous Plants in Mumbai!!!!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgR0LuQTZgTyOukoyW2VZRdBkWa7Sg5xooDhtB46ikVkk_o7TkOCKbRfkO5lbcIv8z1ch-HS4Dj8uLHY1GULj2eHyr1s8V3fomqzrFbepcKeB1ykTcsP0UPmKkamBXkLppWMhlXW-QhKcXo/s1600/Pitcher_Plant_SF_Conservatory.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:left; float:left;margin-right:1em; margin-bottom:1em"><img border="0" height="320" width="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgR0LuQTZgTyOukoyW2VZRdBkWa7Sg5xooDhtB46ikVkk_o7TkOCKbRfkO5lbcIv8z1ch-HS4Dj8uLHY1GULj2eHyr1s8V3fomqzrFbepcKeB1ykTcsP0UPmKkamBXkLppWMhlXW-QhKcXo/s320/Pitcher_Plant_SF_Conservatory.jpg" /></a></div><br />
A city obsessed with murdering its greens...as a nursery we decided to give them a fair chance for them to fight back...so here they are the awesomely deadly pitcher plants!!! These little hanging guys are not as innocent as they sound...the highly evolved carnivorous plants have mastered the art of survival in the deadliest terrains across the world..so mumbai should be a piece of cake for this insect predator.<br />
Troubled my mosquitoes...roaches,lizards,rain insects....look no further than this little plant...this plant is one of the most sophisticated digestive mechanisms in the plant kingdom inside the pitcher it has little hair with digestive enzymes ready to devour its prey...but don't worry as deadly as they sound they are pretty much harmless to kids and inquisitive humans alike!<br />
No now u don't have to light that mosquito coil or put on some silly cream to save urself from getting bitten...keep this plant by ur window side and see it go nuts eating the various insects the city has to offer....these rarest of rare beauties are only available with us at Vriksha .<br />

<i>PLANT CARE TIPS:<br />
taking care of these guys is probably the easiest thing to do...as they pretty much sustain themselves with all the insects they eat!but here are some basic care tips to keep in mind<br />
1)never keep them out in the blaring afternoon sun...<br />
2)always keep the soil moist<br />
3)it likes to be around other plants...ferns especially<br />
4))you don't need to catch insects and feed them...they are well capable of doing that themselves<br />
5)bore well water is a strict no no...<br />
6)don't waste your money on chemical/organic fertilizers these guys don't need em</i><br />
