Took a few minutes to name some of my plants. Some clever, some cringy. However, it was fun.

I do this every time I get a new plant. My fiddle-leaf fig is “figgy,” the purple passion is “prince,” and the waffle plant is “donkey” from Shrek.

I have 40 plants and they each have a name!!! It’s one of the most fun parts of getting a new plant for me - picking its new name!!! 👍👍

I’ve since named 2 more. My birds nest fern is Fern Gully, and my Areca palm is Palmala Planterson.
