Indoor Plant Care Attachment Theory

Overwatering: Anxious-ambivalent attachment

Underwatering: Avoidant-dismissive attachment

Constant moving of plants around the house;

swinging from overwatering to underwatering: Disorganized Attachment

Attuned care; Watering based on the needs of specific plants; Watering schedule fluctuates as is natural in any dynamic environment and according to each plant type, but a loose schedule of watering and repotting and fertilizing occurs based around the seasons, the light, and the behavior/symptoms of the plants themselves, rather than based on a doctrine or even the advice of plant ladies. This is plant care as an act of love and creativity and presence that inspires a beautiful dance of giving and receiving: Secure Attachment
