Spring has sprung, and as the temperatures rise and we venture out from under our blankets and onto our balconies, we’re embracing the joy that being outside in the fresh air and tending to our favorite green companions brings.

Plants make us happy and calm us down — it’s proven by Science™. So whether you’re thinking about dipping your fingers in the soil for the first time, trying to put down roots in a community of growers, or just looking to get out and spend some more time in green environments, you’re likely to reap the benefits when it comes to mental health. In this month’s issue of Your Wealth, we unpack how plants lift our spirits without saying a word, bring you all the tips and tricks in our arsenal on sourcing and caring for your leafy friends, and point you in the direction of some of Egypt’s most spectacular and underappreciated green spaces. Happy growing, folks.
