It's time to BeReal. Caring for plants makes for a pretty good coping mechanism. Sure, it's gratifying to keep a thing, anything alive, but there are selfish reasons for flexing our green thumbs, too. After a couple rough years of social distancing and spending most of our time at home, many of us likely developed new hobbies (read: addictions) while twiddling our thumbs at home. For some people, that hobby was baking one million loaves of bread and gaining 10 pandemic pounds. For many of us, it was caring for house plants. Whether you've got a naturally green thumb or you're a newbie to the world of plant-collecting, houseplants kind of seem to have minds of their own. Even if you do everything perfectly and consult every plant subereddit, your fiddle leaf fig will still randomly decide to die one day. So we might as well enjoy the ride while we can. So here's a bunch of relatable memes for people who have a deep lob for houseplants and get the struggle.
