Plant, Garden, and Tree Quotes for the Plant Parent in You
What can bring you closer to life then growing a life yourself? And while having babies is an option, it might be rather tiring and expensive(for some people at least..smh). So the best way to see life for what it is, from being born to accomplishing things in life and then be lost in eternity, is to grow plant babies! Gardening and planting are hobbies on one hand, and on the other one, they are highly therapeutic. If we look closely, a green baby growing has all the life lessons we will ever need in our life-from germinating and digging through the soil for starting a life to growing deep stable roots for absorbing life from the same soil, from fighting for enough air and sun to selflessly giving everything it owns to others around, until at the end a new leaf grows on a thunder-struck tree trunk. So let’s celebrate the green beings around us with these beautiful quotes:
Below is the best collection of plant, gardening, and tree quotes to keep you growing strong and moving forward in your everyday efforts.
