Indonesia is a country that has many types of tubers and types of spices which are also used as a source of food and medicine, this needs to be maintained for the survival of future children and grandchildren. Utilization and processing of natural resources that do not think about environmental sustainability has a very detrimental impact on humans. Keeping the environment green in the sense that we have to maintain and preserve the types of tubers and spices that we have is the responsibility of all of us for our own comfort and fitness living in a green environment.

Green environment also means that the environment is maintained that is clean, healthy and beautiful to look at. and also the surrounding environment is planted with beautiful trees and plants, even plants that are nutritious and can be used as natural medicine. on the other hand, the presence of trees and plants is important to supply oxygen and reduce pollution. More broadly, to reduce the effects of global warming.

Green nature provides life and various resources for humans. also gives a fresh impression and beautifies the scenery, besides that, there are many more benefits of being in the green nature, including :

  • green nature is the means of supporting the application of a healthy lifestyle. The desire to adopt a healthy lifestyle is often constrained by many things. One of them is an environment that is already arid and it is difficult to get fresh air, so it makes you reluctant to exercise

In an effort to create a green nature, at least we can make use of the yard. You can plant fruit trees such as mango, guava, rambutan. You can also grow vegetables and basic necessities for cooking. Narrow land is no reason not to motivate the spirit to plant.

Lemongrass which contains vitamin C and is commonly used for endurance turns out to contain antioxidants, chlorogenic acid anti-inflammatory compounds, isoorientin, and swertiajaponin. magnesium, potassium, phosphorus.

I got knowledge about the content in lemongrass from my older sister's book when I was in high school. That knowledge is also my motivation for cultivating lemongrass

Does lemongrass smell good when it is green and growing the same as when it is dried or as essential oil? I wonder if I could grow some in a pot. I love the smell of it!
