Cactus or any Thorny Plants Both Vastu as well as Feng Shui professionals recommend that cacti, although adds a very nice and aesthetic touch, can send poor power in your home.

Vastu specialists state that it is best to stay clear of positioning this plant anywhere in your home. It symbolizes sluggish or stunted development and also may hinder the lifecycle of the inhabitants of that home. They require an even more open space like a yard or verandah.

Cotton Plants Cotton plants and also smooth cotton plants are not a wonderful concept to keep in your house.

When plants are placed in the backyard of a home, it brings with it stability and success. It is important to know that some trees and plants are restricted from being placed in living spaces due to their interrelation with ancient aspects that go beyond science. For example, the Peepal tree or sacred fig (Ficus religiosa) and the Banyan tree (Ficus benghalensis) should not be placed within the boundaries of a home, but belong near places of worship, like a temple. Coconut, pine and lemon trees are considered to be good for health as they brighten up their surroundings. These plants ensure positive support.
