The Proots Questionnaire
It’s Show & Tell for Indoor Plants!
Want to play along at home? Here’s how:
–– Questions for You (Plant Owner/Guardian): Answer the first five questions as well as you can. There wrong answers; you’re not being graded on this!
— Questions for Your Plant: Select at least four, but as many as all of the Interview With The Houseplant questions, which are very (very) loosely based on the “Proust Questionnaire.”
— Choose 3-5 photos of your plant. You can be in the photos if you like, but not required.
— Send to marguerite@face-planting.com, or send a message!
1. Your first name (or whatever name you want to use) & City/State
2. What kind of plant is it? If you don’t know, feel free to guess.
3. How did you come to own this plant? (Where did you buy it, or who gave it to you? Also, if you know or remember how much it cost, if applicable, and want to share)
4. How long have you had the plant?
5. Where does the plant live? (e.g., home/office, kitchen, bathroom, etc.)
