Hi plant people! Weird question, do y’all name your plants? I have been asked if I name my plants by co workers a bunch of times lately and I personally don’t name my plants but maybe that’s uncommon?  
Also, wanted to share this beautiful blooming flower! How I got it and how it’s doing now:

### Sarah commented on 2025-02-13

I don’t name mine.

### KJM commented on 2025-02-13

I do not name most of my plants but I know a lot of people who do. And, that is a beautiful amaryllis.

### Alyssa commented on 2025-02-13

I don’t really name mine, but I subconsciously refer to them as different gender pronouns lol, like my pothos and scindapsus are “she’s” and my zz plant is a “he” lol 😂

most of my plants i consider male for some reason. they just look mostly like guys i guess. 😂

#### Alyssa replied on 2025-02-13

😂 that’s cute

### Tellie commented on 2025-02-13

Some have names. Some don’t. Some I’m trying to figure out what to name it.

### Autumn commented on 2025-02-13

i name some, if i feel a stronger connection to them.

### plantmother commented on 2025-02-13

I name all my plants, they are my children

### The threeplantiers commented on 2025-02-13

I do so I feel extra desperate to take care of it

#### Dax replied on 2025-02-15

🤣 Same - the name shames me into making sure I don’t neglect them! Poor Bob is thirsty and needs me is more compelling than aloe pup number 10 needs to be watered 😂

#### Amy replied on 2025-02-15

😂
