Plantworld: 🗣 it’s

Me: 🗣f**k these succulents!!!

Y’all.
I try. I fail. I try again.

But why do we do that tho?!

All these beautiful thriving plants I got up in here, and I’m set on killing a succulent.

And I know it’s my ego.
Because I don’t like the idea that it’s a plant I can’t grow. That I can’t keep alive despite all my best efforts. All my fancy well draining mediums and barks. All the plant lights.

Succulents come up in here and just give up.

And maybe, just maybe I’ll stop this cycle betweenst us. Because at some point, Issa waste of time, money and energy.

So, that’s it.
A little transparency. Because I struggle. And my plants struggle. And that’s just life. Not sorry.

You’ll know when it’s for you.

Peench (n.)
1. a passed torch.
2. A story, told time and time again.
3. Life.
a. Let me share mine with you
i. Bloodline. Friend. Family.
4. A Cultural marker
a. a language.

Peench (v.)
1. To show one’s affection, kinship or community through the gifting of a plant cutting.

2. The way one obtains the cutting, typically engaging the nails of the thumb and middle fingers to slice through a stalk, to be rooted and started as its own plant.

3. Peench (adv.)
The way my grandmama said “I love you”
Both the verb and the noun.

Like lots of us, our plant numbers boomed over the last six months especially. We’ve found community on these platforms that make us feel somehow close to folk around the country. Dope right? It’s half amazing, half disheartening to witness the judgement and shaming that comes from not knowing.

To have your image shared out of a safe space and be labeled a thief. Tuh.

I thought everybody had an auntie or grandma that loved them in this way.

Who knew.

I also thought Usfolk could be gentler, more human with one another through plant life and care.

Who. Knew.

These some of my peenched plants y’all.
Yep. Gifted or gotten with permission. Because peenchin is part of an exchange of love. It’s an agreement between both parties to continue the life. And in so doing, and when it’s right, share forward.

Y’all *DO* know that’s the history behind the wedding bouquet, right???

That’s it. That’s been on my heart to share for a while now.

Biases bring harm to safe spaces.
