ZWhen I was in hospital I read a study that showed that even a small patch of green in a room ( even a small painted patch of a wall) could reduce stress levels. We can’t survive separated from greenness and nature
Absolutely, I had a hand in making this happen and it’s paying off, see link:

If I’m not mistaken, that’s 3 conservatories that have also appeared in this thread.

Unfortunately, any attempts by the wife and me, at creating a decent lawn, have been ruined by the dogs.
So although we do have a decent amount of grass, in the garden.
It's in pretty poor condition.

I moaned yesterday about the council not mowing the grassed areas outside my house, but to be honest, the wild flowers are lovely, so I take that back.
