Almost every home has plants in them. Some are real and some are fake. It makes their house look very nice and beautiful, but it takes a lot to take care of or to keep it clean. You can have them in your house or in your yard. It doesn't matter because it will look good any way. Plants need a lot of water to survive and grow to stay green.



Plants are living things just like the rest of us they need water to feed it. You plant them in the ground or in a pot either inside or outside your home. They also need dirt to live and grow or it will turn brown. Then it will wilt, and it will die. But you also have to water it every so often. Have you ever cut off a piece of a plant? You will see water coming out of the spot that was cut.

Water flows through the plant just like our blood flows through our veins. Water is like blood to it' that is how it lives. If you leave to go out of town, you need to make sure your plant has enough water for the time you are gone, so it can stay healthy and green. Water and dirt are the biggest elements that a plant needs.

You don't need to water fake plants, but you do have to clean it by spraying or wiping it with water to make it look real. These are a lot easier to take care of. Some fake plants look and feel real, but some do not. All real plants love to be sprayed with water because it is like a shower to them. People use sprinklers to help them from drying up on these hot summer days. During the winter months, some plants have to come inside to survive the cold. The cold will kill some plants but not many. The only ones that have to come in are the hanging plants and the plants in the pots.

If you water them too much, you will have a mess and it can drown them. If you do not water them enough, the little amount of water will not do anything for them. Some people love to take care of plants because it's like a child to them. You have to make sure the temperature is right and that they get a lot of sun, or you can use a light bulb to keep them warm. You can't keep the light bulb too close to the plant because it will make it dry up.
