		<description>Quite informative

But specifically would like to know more about bamboo trees in the house garden...

some say it isnt good to have a bamboo at home according to hindu tradition, but its so pleasant to see the colors of the bamboo.... could anyone throw light on this topic

Hi Mr Praveen,
Vastu is interpreted differently in various regions and by different practicioners. So you may have heard conflicting opinions on having a bamboo tree in your garden. 
But if I apply logic and reasoning, I think it is not a good idea to have a bamboo plant because it is a very fast growing, tall plant with lot of foliage and very invasive as it spreads by running rhizomes. So a single bamboo plant could transform into a forest in very short time and block off most of the light and air to a house. But like you say, it looks very aesthetic with its yellow trunks hiding between the long, green leafy blades. So maybe if you have a large plot like a farm, you can have a clump of bamboo basically from an aesthetic point of view.
Of course in feng shui, it is considered an auspicious plant as it is a symbol of long life and strength - basically because it is a highly evolved grass that has withstood time. But if you notice, even in feng shui only small bamboo shoots are encouraged to be used in jars in the house.

		<description>Sir/Ma am,

Is it good to have moeny plant in house according to vastu shastra? Please let me know It&#039;s in my florida room. It is good place for it or not?

Hi Sumit,

Living, healthy plants in a house symbolize life and vitality and they add colour to your space. Use plants that are vibrant, healthy and lush. They should be placed in the eastern parts of the house since they will be flooded with morning sunlight. Place a money plant in the eastern section of the main room, namely the living room.
Regards,
Admin</description>

		<description>Dear Sir/Mam and hello every one
My House is north facing, and land is also facing north to the road. I would like to plant a Mango tree in souch or South East direction, 
I have planted a small Banana Tree in my house, some one is suggesting me to remove the plant immediately. What should I do now. Your suggestions is highly appreciated.

Dear Mr Krishna,
It is advisable to have more trees on the south, west and south-west sides, to serve as a buffer to the afternoon heat. It is better to keep the north and east sides more open as it will allow the useful morning sunlight into the house. as far as I know, useful trees like banana, mango, jackfruit, flowering shrubs etc are worth having in any house garden.

		<description>Thank you Ritu and Vineeta, for your encouraging comments. As an Architect practicing in Bangalore, I want to share my knowledge and experience in Vastu, in a scientific way, so that you will understand why Vastu is so popular and meaningful even today. However, this site is still under construction and it may take some time for me to put up all the information that I want to. So kindly bear with me.</description>
