In a city that is starved of both space and greenery, 69-year-old Malad resident, Lorna Oza's terrace garden, is a class-apart. A testament to this is the trophy bestowed upon her by city-based NGO Friends of Trees which organised a contest for terrace gardens.

Oza won the second prize for the competition's 'Terrace Garden Under 500 square metres' category. She lost to corporate giant Godrej Industries and was the only private individual to win. Her terrace garden boasts over 500 potted plants, most of which cannot be found in modern-day nurseries as they don't have any commercial value.
