\"\"<\/a>There’s a great story in today’s New York Times <\/a>about green home design with quotes from various sources on the importance of living around growing things. While there’s some debate about whether walls like these <\/a>clean the air or create molds that might cause allergies, the future looks bright for this kind of connected-to-nature style. <\/p>\n

If you’re the sort of person who says, “Oh, plants just die on me,” please stop labeling yourself that way! Give yourself a break and try to nurture something green this fall. Buy a plant, water and spritz it, and keep fostering the mutually-beneficial relationship!<\/p>\n
