   Having a garden means you need lots of space and free time. But there are many reasons why gardening (园艺) is a good hobby to develop. One of them is,plants bring color to any room and keep the air nice and good. And,if you keep some flowering plants outside your windows,they may even attract lovely bees,butterflies. In a word,it's good for places around us. Gardeners also feel very close to nature. This is important,especially with all of the environmental problems we are trying to do with these days.

   There are another two reasons for gardening as well. One is that it makes people more relaxed. Studies show that people who do gardening feel calmer in their lives.

Both of these are helpful for a healthy lifestyle.
