Is it weird to be excited about a plant that’s not even yours? My work has planters everywhere and one of the floors has this big monstera shooting out two new leaves! I walk by it once a week to see if they’ve unfurled lol

Not weird…it’s completely normal 😊

I’m the same way! I was out in the rain @ my local Walmart when I found the snake plant I was looking for.

Hahah. One of our corporate snake plants was laying sideways and I kept wanting to chop and prop the leaves that had gone horizontal- alas this week I came in and noticed the plant lady had replaced or fixed it! Hahaha

I’m the office manager at my job and we have 9 plants that I take care of. I spend like a quarter of my day just staring at and admiring them😂
