Grammar

Singular and plural issue

× I do grow several plants at home because I believe they create a calming and refreshing atmosphere that helps me relax after a busy day.

I do grow several plants at home because I believe they create a calming and refreshing atmosphere that helps me relax after a busy day.

No singular/plural error in this sentence; 'plants' and 'they' are correctly plural.

Singular and plural issue

× For instance, I have a few patted herbs and chocolates which are easy to care for and improve the air quality indoors.

For instance, I have a few potted herbs and chocolate plants which are easy to care for and improve the air quality indoors.

The word 'patted' is incorrect; it should be 'potted' to describe plants in pots. Also, 'chocolates' is incorrect in this context; it should be 'chocolate plants' to refer to plants, not candies. This corrects the plural and noun usage.

Singular and plural issue

× Having this plant around not only makes my living place more lively.

Having these plants around not only makes my living place livelier.

The subject refers to multiple plants, so 'this plant' should be 'these plants' to match plural. Also, 'more lively' is better expressed as 'livelier' (comparative adjective).

Past tense issue

× When I was a child, I used to grow some flowers in my backyard.

When I was a child, I used to grow some flowers in my backyard.

No past tense error; 'used to grow' correctly expresses past habitual action.

Incorrect use of adjectives or adverbs

× I loved watching them proud, seeing their bright yellow petals unfold and noticing how tall they could get in just a few weeks.

I loved watching them proudly, seeing their bright yellow petals unfold and noticing how tall they could get in just a few weeks.

'Proud' is an adjective but here it should be an adverb modifying 'watching'; therefore, 'proudly' is correct.

Singular and plural issue

× One made it even more enjoyable was that the flower attracted bee and butterflies bring more life.

What made it even more enjoyable was that the flowers attracted bees and butterflies, bringing more life.

'One' is incorrect; 'What' is needed to introduce the clause. 'Bee' should be plural 'bees' to match 'butterflies'. Also, 'bring' should be 'bringing' to correctly link the clause.

Singular and plural issue

× Yes, I have some big knowledge about growing plant.

Yes, I have a lot of knowledge about growing plants.

'Big knowledge' is incorrect; 'a lot of knowledge' or 'much knowledge' is correct. 'Growing plant' should be plural 'growing plants'.

Past tense issue

× When I was younger I tried crying a small herb garden at home with butcher and meat, which helped me understand the importance of watering regularly and providing enough sunlight.

When I was younger, I tried creating a small herb garden at home with butcher and meat, which helped me understand the importance of watering regularly and providing enough sunlight.

'Crying' is incorrect; the intended word is 'creating'. The phrase 'with butcher and meat' is unclear and likely incorrect but kept as is since it is unclear what was meant.

Incorrect use of pronouns

× Yes, Chinese people do say the plant as gift, especially during festivals and special occasions.

Yes, Chinese people do send plants as gifts, especially during festivals and special occasions.

'Say the plant as gift' is incorrect; the correct phrase is 'send plants as gifts'. Also, 'plant' should be plural 'plants' and 'gift' should be plural 'gifts'.

Singular and plural issue

× Plants like lucky bamboo or orchids are popular because they symbolize good fortune, prosperity and harmony.

Plants like lucky bamboo or orchids are popular because they symbolize good fortune, prosperity and harmony.

No singular/plural error here; sentence is correct.

Singular and plural issue

× For example, keeping a Banzai plant is often seen as a salt procedure that convey respect and well wished.

For example, keeping a Bonsai plant is often seen as a solemn procedure that conveys respect and well wishes.

'Banzai' is a misspelling of 'Bonsai'. 'Salt' should be 'solemn'. 'Convey' should be 'conveys' to agree with singular subject 'procedure'. 'Well wished' should be 'well wishes'.
