Nature Needs You!
3 Reasons To Plant A Tree This Monsoon

Pollution, urban flooding, rapid urbanization and the impeding effects of climate change often make us feel helpless against the environmental destruction. However, there is a small thing which you can - inexpensive and durable! You can plant a tree! Yes, but when? Now!

Why shall we plant trees during monsoon?

  • Between June and mid-August soil is able to absorb moisture and becomes more conducive for planting.
  • Monsoon rainfall takes care of watering the sapling and the root gets stabilized.
  • Survival chances of a young tree are higher if planted during the rainy season

Some things to remember:

  • Plant saplings only after three or four instances of rainfalls. Plant local Indian varieties!
  • Check the quality of soil and availability of sunlight and water before planting.
  • Fruit trees should be planted in the back of the house, flowering trees towards the side and the decorative in front.
  • Make sure the trees are not going to intervene with electric poles and wires.
  • Check with your local authorities and NGOs for free saplings.
