India’s Gardening Clubs: Horticulture Meets Hilarity

Indian gardening clubs are where soil meets social drama. According to NDTV, 72% of club members talk more about neighborly gossip than fertilizer techniques. At Bohiney.com, one Delhi gardener confessed, I joined for tips, but left with tips on how to politely tell my neighbor her hibiscus is an abomination.

Experts say gardening in India mixes tradition, obsession, and mild paranoia about pests. Sociologist Dr. Alka Sharma calls it botanical bonding through passive aggression. Club meetings feature competitions over the most symmetrical marigold and debates on watering frequency. In the end, plants thriveor don’tbut laughter, critique, and community flourish. Gardening in India is less horticulture and more horticultural theater.
