@Aubrynn

Great choice! I love cacti too laugh

I would be an aloe vera because its leaves are beautiful (I have one at home with my cactus ^^) and it has all sorts of healing properties.

I saw plenty aloe veras in Australia and Mexico.

What plant would you be and why?

---> I'd be a succelent because it's really aesthetic and low maintenance (watered only once a week). It also symbolizes timeless and enduring love. <3

Where is this plant found?

---> It can be found everywhere, it's a really common plant.

Solanum nigrum aka black nightshade! Because the name sounds cool, it looks pretty and fragile - but very poisonous!

Image result for willow tree

I would be a Willow tree.

I used to have one right in front on my window and I would look out at it when I was upset and cry to it and its gentle leaves would weave and wave around in the wind - taking my pain away. Almost a physical lullaby to my heart.

It is gentle, peaceful and serene.

It's roots will travel so deep and exand so wide ubder ground rooting it firmly in the earth. Grounded.

No matter where it is planted - these roots will grow and look for water .

Remind me of me...in some way.

It is my kindred tree.
