Irene, Irene, I loved your creative and compassionate approach to this issue. It shows you are a responsible influencer. I can relate to some degree. While I’d never spend $$$$ on a plant, I do have a very small plant budget each pay period. I stopped laughing as much and paid closer attention on the calculator scene. It made me wonder. Genius!

My wife loves your videos. She assures me she’s not an addict, she’s just obsessed with plants. Apparently, the difference is how much money she spends on plants. All I know is that every time she leaves the house she returns with new green children. 😳

Kevin, if you replace the 'h' with 'f' your last name is Leafy? I'm sorry but you are destined to have many green children...it's you...not your wife.🌱🌿🌿😁

I would love to buy more plants, but no room to grow them, then i realized that im going overboard with plant shopping. i realized that im buying plants that are trendy. after much thinking this is unhealthy habits. I slowed down with my purchases. Now i buy plants that i love and enjoy and i propagate most of my plants. I buy stocks instead.

[@leafing.around]

Stock....yes! Tip - which ones please? ;)
