Adoption Mentality

As a horticulture enthusiast, when I visit a nursery and buy a plant for my home, I am essentially behaving like a new pet owner. I will adopt a certain variety, add a pot, select fortified soil, purchase plant food, and so forth, just as I would for a new puppy albeit with puppies I would select food, pet beds, collars, etc.
