From ancient man falling out of trees, right down to the more modern bloke picking up cheap apology flowers in a petrol station courtyard, the male relationship with plants has, historically, been an odd one. However the seeds of change have been sown by website thejoyofplants.co.uk, who are on a mission to make men realise precisely how important a green thumb can be. Aside from the obvious advantages of making a home more lively, colourful and comfortable, plants come with the handy side-effect of providing more oxygen. While that fact comes straight out of a primary school textbook, what most people don't realise is that this improvement in air quality helps combat day-to-day worries like exhaustion and stress. It follows then, that if men are capable of realising the importance of oxygen, they can also be capable or realising the importance of plants. Their new video explains this premise by dismantling a number of horticultural preconceptions; primarily that plants are reserved for women. Quite the opposite actually, as with a little care an attention any man can create their own leafy haven in their own home; a sure fire way to catch the eye of that special someone. But where to start? Well, if you don't know your geraniums from your Phalaenopsis from your Playstation, thejoyofplants.co.uk have put together a tough, rugged and inspiring selection dubbed the Vitamin Plants For Men. Not only do they come in reassuringly masculine pots, but they're simple enough to pretend that you've had it for years. After all, aesthetically pleasing and cost-effective ways to improve both your home and your health don't grow on... well, you get the picture.
