Nature-lover Anusha Babbar has introduced a door-to-door gardening service out of Green Grower, her Bandra-based nursery, hoping that the convenience encourages more Mumbaikars to grow Chillies, Water Cabbages and Brinjals

Positioned right across the road from Bandra Talao, Green Grower, a nursery run by a team of 60 was set up 11 years ago by NS Rao, Anusha Babbar's grandfather. She inherited her love for greens from him and her grandma Lily who'd spend almost all her time in their garden, pruning roses and orchids. "We had a greenhouse on our terrace, and she'd grow grapes there. She acquired over 80 certificates in gardening. The land around our bungalow still has Jackfruit, Coconut, Mango and Guava trees," says Anusha. It's hard not to ponder over destiny when she tells you that her Armenian grandmother's maiden name was Varthanoush, meaning
sweet flower.
