Ornamental plants, also known as garden plants, are plants that are primarily grown for their beauty and aesthetic appeal, rather than for functional purposes such as food or shelter. They are grown for the display of aesthetic features including flowers, leaves, scent, overall foliage texture, fruit, stem and bark, and aesthetic form. Ornamental plants are the keystone of ornamental gardening, and they come in a range of shapes, sizes, and colors suitable to a broad array of climates, landscapes, and gardening needs. Some ornamental plants are foliage plants grown mainly or entirely for their showy foliage, which is especially true of houseplants.

Ornamental plants have a rich history, with evidence of ornamental gardening dating back at least 4,000 years. The history of ornamental gardening is depicted in Egyptian tomb paintings of the 1500 BC, which show lotus ponds surrounded by symmetrical rows of acacias and palms.

While some ornamental plants can be used for medicinal purposes, most are grown for display purposes only. However, ornamental plants play an important role in human health and psychology, as human health depends on well-functioning ecosystems.

Below are some examples of ornamental plants with names:

• Silver Nerve Plant
• Fibre Optic Grass Plant
• Snake Plant
• String Of Pearls
• Peace Lily

Overall, ornamental plants are an important part of gardening and landscaping, providing beauty and aesthetic appeal to outdoor and indoor spaces.
