Just like relationships, plants require time, nutrition, and care for growth. And just like relationships, plant care isn’t always easy. But once you understand your plant needs and find a routine, you quickly notice all the wonderful benefits of having plants in your life! Join plant lover Khadija Benis as she interviews plant enthusiasts from all over the world about their unique relationships with their soilmates —how they fell in love with them, the ups and downs of the learning process, and their tips on how to make them thrive.
Produced by soulmates Khadija & Bruno.

Customer Reviews
Love these!
I love these short fun vignettes while I’m getting ready or on my short drive to work. I love hearing other peoples experiences with plants and listening to people who love their plant relationships as much as I do. I think the personification adds such a fun aspect as well. I have loved @_soilmates_ IG for many years and I’m so glad she is making her plant dreams come true with this lovely podcast.
