From the ethnobotany to the green walls: the total human-plant relationship

Relationship between man and plants has evolved as much as technological development and the increase of urban areas have allowed. However, humanity recognizes how dependence with plant exists. From the beginning of civilization, man has taken plants to his home and established an imperceptible limit between needs and preferences for being surrounded by green. Providing a beautiful environment is not the only benefit of plants, however, its positive effect must be well weighted in the light of research and a new education that strengthens the concept of well being that can generate. The present review is a minimal contribution in the attempt to reconsider again the relationship between man and his plant environment, since it is necessary to have an interdisciplinary visualization of it.
