Juniper is a plant that can help in the fight for health during the off-season.
This is why many gardeners and summer residents prefer to plant it on their plots.
Together with the expert of the online publication TUT NOVOSTI, agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , we figure out whether it is worth planting this plant on the site.
Benefits of Juniper
Juniper helps with colds: all above-ground parts of the plant are used for medicinal decoctions.
In addition, it is used in cooking, and the plant's wood is used to make furniture.
It also releases phytoncides into the air, which we inhale to improve our health.
Where to plant juniper
To plant the plant, you need to choose a well-lit area in the garden or vegetable garden.
It is best to choose a place near a window or door: then the healing phytoncides will enter the house.
Juniper loves loose soil, so when planting the plant, add not only humus and fertilizer, but also add sand.
