In a pandemic-stricken world where one in five adults talk to their houseplants once a week, and 8% chat with them daily, it’s clear that regularly watering, pruning, and re-positioning our plants makes us feel closer to them and encourages us to speak to them with respect and love.
Michael Perry, a renowned botanist, worked with us to create a unique playlist that people can play in the company of their plants, with songs that range from classical, to electronic and R&B:
“You don’t even have to talk directly to your plants – if you’re having conversations near them, or playing music, then they’re going to be enjoying those vibrations and it will benefit them. It’s a symbiotic relationship – those plants are making us feel good, they relieve stress and allow us to focus, improving our mood in a meditative way.”
