Greetings dear friends of Hive Garden, happy to post in this community. I really enjoyed reading week 16 of the Hive Garden Question, I Love the Hive Garden Because..... Although this is only my third post in the community (the first one was about three years ago), I love gardening and reading other people's content is enriching for me because I learn more about plants. I am sure I will find many tips to improve my garden and that is something I value very much, besides how wonderful it is to share ideas and support each other.
The questions posed in Hive Garden of week 16 are of reference and I find them interesting, so I will answer each one. Despite being a new user in the community, I think the benefit of posting in this community besides expanding my circle of friends in Hive, is as I explained in the beginning, to learn more about plants, this would be something like my expectations, get ideas to implement them in my own garden and be a voice for them so that other people learn, value our green lungs and have love to the work of gardening. As for my favorite gardener, I am sure that many users who post in this community are wonderful, but I can honestly say that I have read @anggreklestari's posts and I have seen how carefully he takes care of his garden. His plants are beautiful, he has many species, both ornamental and edible.
I really appreciate the fact that in her garden she has crops that she can use in the kitchen, something I consider a great privilege, from the garden to the table. In short, I love the beauty of @anggreklestari's garden and I consider it a source of inspiration for everyone, including myself.
In particular, I really like ornamental plants, but I also value the non-flowering and medicinal ones. So, in relation to the question, What do I like most about the Hive Garden community, I can honestly say that I am attracted to see how each of the users show their plants, how they take care of them and the achievements obtained in their garden, which they show with pride. If there are failures, we learn from them not to make the same mistakes. Besides, we all have something in common, the passion for gardening. I really enjoy seeing the different types of flowers in their garden, and I am even happy to see when they have a vegetable garden that provides them with food, so they don't have to go shopping at the market. All these activities and their fruitful results are a source of inspiration for me.
In relation to what I gain from writing in my blog about my garden, there are many things, the first one is that I will have a kind of diary in which I can see the progress of my garden, week by week, month by month, it will be wonderful to update and feel very happy with the results. This in turn will serve as an impulse for me to keep working harder every day to take care of it and improve my little green lung space. In the previous publication I mentioned that I am recovering it after my own and my father's illnesses, who later passed away, I had neglected it a little bit, and since a few months ago I am giving it a new shape.
I want to end by saying that gardening is very rewarding, it distracts the mind, reduces stress, generates peace and activates creativity. Besides, we give love to plants, which are very necessary for life on the planet. This has been my participation in [WEEK 16 - I Love the Hive Garden Because....](https://hive.blog/hive-140635/@gardenhive/week-16-i-love-the-hive-garden-because).
