One of the most spiritual and positive plants in Indian homes is definitely Tulsi. Tulsi is linked to the blessings of Lord Vishnu and Maa Lakshmi, and it is believed that a healthy Tulsi plant at home ensures peace, good health, and financial stability.

Marigolds are classic flowers in Indian gardens and balconies, and their bright and cheerful blooms are a delight to see. The bright golden-orange shade fills the garden with a burst of colour, and the soft fragrance is also a delight.

Palash flowers usually bloom from trees, and thus it is best to grow them only if you have a wide garden space. But the bright orange-red flowers are a delight to see, and they look like Flames in a forest.
canva
Hibiscus is a beautiful flower that looks perfect in small or big balcony gardens, and the bright red, pink, and even yellow flowers are a treat to the eyes. They bloom throughout summer, and fill the gardens with beautiful colour.

Amaltas trees produce beautiful yellow flowers that look bright as the sun on summer days. But Amaltas should only be grown if you have large garden grounds, or enough space in the balcony or terrace garden.
canva
Another favourite in the Indian gardens is the sweet-smelling Jasmine flower, or Mogra. Jasmine comes in many types, from climbing Jasmine to Raat Rani, and the beautiful white and yellow blooms are an eye candy.
canva
Rajnigandha, or Tuberose, are beautiful white flowers that bloom similar to Jasmine flowers, and have a soft fragrance that will fill the garden and balcony with a pleasant energy.
canva
A favourite in the non-flowering variety, Pothos is one of the easiest to maintain plants. It grows in water, in soil, in hanging baskets, without any pots or baskets, and can go for days without sunlight or water.
canva
Snake plant is a favourite when it comes to indoor gardening, and its tall, upright leaves with a dark and light green colour pattern is a catch. These too need minimal watering and sunlight, and will continue to grow and propagate indoors.
canva
The flower with one of the brightest and most lovely blooms is Plumeria. The flowers have a bright white, pink, or even yellow shade, and the fragrance is sweet-smelling and spreads around nicely.
