| I've had this huge spider plant since fifth grade (10 years now). I haven't named her yet, but I am somewhat attached to it, despite it being the ugliest thing ever. Ugly plants need love too. |

Haha I like how you called your plant a "her". It's weird how we attach personal pro-nouns to things that aren't either male or female.
You should name her. |

Yeah it's kinda weird. I don't attach genders to any of my other plants, but seeing as this one keeps generating babies at an alarming rate I thought it seemed appropriate. :p |

What makes one an idiot for assigning a name to a living entity?
We name pets - they are alive
We name people - they are alive
Why not name a plant?
Hell, people name their own body parts. Or their cars. etc. etc.
I don't think it is unreasonable to name a plant. |

I have heaps of plants out on my deck
And a Basil plant in my office, which rocks because it smells really nice all day :)
I don't name any of them though, I never really thought to :conf: |

Yeah, I love it out there, it's extremely relaxing. But the possums ate all my herbs, so that's why I have a Basil plant in my office :p |
