Visakhapatnam Nursery Offers Plant Exchange Program
In Visakhapatnam, there's a nursery where you can swap your old, dull-looking plants for new saplings.
A man named Mohammad Fasi Ur Rahaman started this idea to encourage people, especially young ones, to enjoy gardening.
When you bring an old plant, he gives you a new one based on its condition.
If you want a more expensive plant, you can pay the extra amount.
The old plants are taken care of and sold again at a low cost.
The nursery has many different kinds of plants, including some rare ones.
People who visit the market for vegetables also stop by to exchange their plants.
A nursery in Visakhapatnam offers a plant exchange program where old plants can be swapped for new saplings.
The initiative was started by Mohammad Fasi Ur Rahaman to encourage gardening among the younger generation.
The new sapling offered depends on the condition and health of the exchanged plant.
Old plants brought in through the exchange are revived and sold at a minimal cost.
The nursery houses 85 varieties of plants, including some rare flowering saplings.
