I’m relatively new to plant care and I’m on the high functioning side of the autism spectrum. I really find a lot about it that soothes some of my symptoms! Sensory stimulation, patience and calmness etc. I can really see getting obsessed with these plants and overloading my collection! Anybody else on the spectrum and know what I’m saying there?
Oh, and definitely pattern and routine is part of it

Oh yes! I also find looking at them to be calming. Especially in the winter when it’s gross outside and they are lovely & green 💚 🍃 🪴

I am not on the spectrum, but my daughter is. She is so obsessed with plants that she has made it her career.
