Is it just me, or does buying a new plant have a positive effect on your mood? Or even just looking at your plants can put you in a good mood? 🌱🪴❤️

I am going to a greenhouse on Sunday and I am so ready because it always makes me feel better to just be around plants 😌🪻

Yes! The excitement of a new plant ‘Out for Delivery’😁

I got a bunch of new pepper plants and I super excited! I’m looking right now too and my Carolina Reaper plant has its first flower!

Absolutely my plant babies are my Zin!! Plant therapy is the best it gives me so much joy caring for them and admiring how they look around my home

### Lilee commented on 2025-05-23

Yes!!! Especially with a nice looking pot, looking at my plants and finding new growth just brings me so much peace

### Sunny commented on 2025-05-23

Arriving plants set off brain chemicals that make me happy! Do I need another plant? Absolutely not! Here are the latest two I don’t need, Hoya Krohniana Super Silver that look as good as a Hoya Lacunosa Silver Mint Coin, but, a lot more affordable. 😆

💯 when I’m gloomy, I have this urge to go on the hunt for a new plant 😂

Oh 1000%!  
Looking at my plant babies always fills me with joy. They’re like little stationary friends who grow, change, \& communicate with us. I feel so proud knowing that they’re thriving because of me 🥹

It’s so much fun to start a new plant journey. It’s exciting to put them in their new home \& an amazing feeling when they like it! There’s so many different kinds too. It can very easily become addicting 🙂‍↔️

Both!! And hugging a tree. 🌴Grounding my mind \& soul. ✨

### Dax commented on 2025-05-23

Both for me!!
