Been planting for about 2yrs now, during this time I have had the opportunity to learn much from these multicellular eukaryotic life-form of Kingdom Plantae 🌱, that borrow much from the existence of humans. Other than learning from them and enjoying it as a hobby, planting has helped me overcome an issue I have dealt with for a long time, Anxiety. I am humbled to be a daddy of close to 30 species of plants in the house. Saying I enjoy maximum supply of Oxygen will be a show off😌 Loving this journey ❤️. #plantstoyourface
