tree is a home

My earlier post on urban wildlife was to highlight the need to plant more-either trees, shrubs or herbs-say, any form of plant in the "concrete jungles" which we so affectionately refer to as towns or cities.

As I wrote before, any plant form houses one or more type of organism, like my bamboo sheltering those munias. With the concrete structures getting erected all around, where would all our fellow creatures go? For the birds and spiders and the like, the the plants are their homes.

Walk around your garden. Look up your tree or plant. How many insects, lizards, spiders can u see? 1, 2..10... the list can grow.

Next time, before you disturb a plant..Think of it's residents. Under the Green Umbrella there is an exciting world! Discover and protect it.

By un-necessary dislocating a plant or tree, you might be dislocating or even killing an organism.
