I Love Plants
Posted on July 9, 2008 - Filed Under Environment/Conservation |
It occurred to me today that I really like plants. Not only do they provide me with 99.999% of everything I eat (fungi making up the rest), but I also like looking at them, tending to them and planting them. There’s something altogether relaxing about their nature. So while I’m not going to start hugging trees all the time, I now think that I’d like to have a big garden wherever I end up living, because the more I toil in my parents’ one the more I appreciate it and its occupants.
My favourite plant, the Japanese Maple, which also goes by the rather awesome name Acer Palmatum.

Try not to get too attached to plants. Not more than you love animals anyway. You’d have to go fruitarian then.
0.0001% mushrooms is a bit low imho.
And yes, plants are great.
Before you ask, no, you should not become a professional gardener.
