All my plants living inside got a name. Am I the only one doing this?

Its kind of fun to say stuff like “yeh i have to water Gerta” or “I am living with Gerta, Liselotte, Bums, Godwin, Waldemar and Dawn” :P

How did you name your plants? If you do.

    Only a few… now I feel bad for all the unnamed

    My big alocasia zebrina is Stampy, and my little amazonicas are Thing 1 and Thing 2

    Jack is my hatiora salicornioides, and Sally is the tradescantia that lives next to him

    My beautiful old mess of coppertone sedum is Grampus

    The reaching tradescantia under my office window is Medusa

    Gollum jade is named Coral

    And my peperomia graveolens is Ruby

    Some are not overly creative, lol

          Well thats kind of easy! There is a postcard saying “und so bekam er ganz profan den namen >>bums<<”. And i saw it while searching for a name.
