Pandemic Lockdown: A history of PLANTito & PLANTita

The pandemic this day has affected every segment of life. Many people have forced to stay inside their homes, leading to the “new normal” of living and adaptation.

Gardening, as one activity of Filipinos, has increased its engagement during the onset of the lockdown until the present time. The use of the words “plantito” and “plantita” have been a widespread words in the Philippines during the start of pandemic and this means, denote someone who enjoys taking care of plants in the garden, organizing their garden accessories with extravagant pots, healthy soil, smaller to bigger plants, etc.

Now, most of the “plantito and plantita” use their time in the garden or balcony because gardening provides a place for experiencing nature which is proven to benefit mental health, cognitive functioning and emotional well-being. It also reduces depression, anxiety, obesity and heart disease as well as increasing life satisfaction. Gardens are essential to supporting recovery from illness and merely looking at gardens can reduce stress, blood pressure and muscle tension

Above all of this, the coronavirus lockdown provides the time and opportunity to create the garden you always wanted, producing a sense of pride and of course pleasure for you and your whole household.
