Alright, green thumbs and garden gurus, I hope you’re ready to embark on a verdant voyage of love and leaves. Get ready to frolic among the botanical brilliance, then get your trowels ready for a whole new bed of blossoming ideas…
Petal Pusher
- Plant Power: Do a bit of research on one or two specific exhibits at the Botanical Garden. This gives you some ‘targets’ to seek out for shared focus.
- Like One Of Your French Girls: Consider bringing sketchbooks, or just be ready with your phone, to capture beautiful blooms or interesting plant specimens.
- Botanist Bonanza: Try to identify different plant species! There might be plaques to help, or try using a plant identification app for a fun challenge.
- No. 5: Seek out areas with particularly fragrant blossoms. Close your eyes together and describe what you smell – do your impressions match?
- Sensory Stroll: Engage senses beyond just sight. Notice the different textures, rustling leaves, and even the feel of the sun or a breeze on your skin. Share these observations with each other.
Botanical Bonds
- What does it all mean?!: Think beyond just looks. Do certain plants come with symbolism (love, peace, new beginnings, etc.)? Choose one that resonates.
- Shared Custody: Research basic care needs for your plant together. Decide who waters, who fertilizes, who gives it pep talks…
- For the ‘gram: Take a photo together holding your new plant baby! It’ll be a sweet reminder of your date.
