This year has been TOUGH and since plants can help improve our health & happiness, Health Suite 110 has initiated an Adopt-A-Plant program for our members who would find joy and solace in welcoming a new member to their family. Below, you'll find information on our current critters and are welcome to reach out with any further questions. 
- Each plant comes with its own coffee mug pot and custom care sheet, created by HS110 staff -

​​There is no adoption fee, however we gladly accept donations or cute coffee mugs ​to help support this ongoing project.
​Thank you!

Betty "Self worthiness"
​(Echeveria Affinis Black Knight)
Echeverias remind us to feel worthy despite our many complicated layers.
How to take care of Betty: she loves lots of sunlight during the daytime, however the afternoon sun in the summer can cause her leaves to burn, so Betty would love to turn in a little earlier during summers. Water can be a friend or foe. Betty doesn't like too much water, so a good way to check if she might need some hydration is by feeling the soil. If it is dry to touch, then she's thirsty. Also, Betty appreciates her leaves to be kept dry when watering.

How Betty can take care of you: Betty teaches you how to feel worthy of yourself during difficult times. Sometimes a little time for yourself goes a long way. As you water Betty, it might be confusing how just a little bit of water is enough, but as you watch her leaves bloom, she will help you remind yourself that a little self-care goes a long way.

Geraldine "Perseverance"
​(Kalanchoe Tomentosa)
Kalanchoe Tomentosas remind us that when we are faced with failures, it's ok to fall, but to also remember to pull ourselves up and not let defeat define us.
How to take care of Geraldine: She loves the bright sun shining on her leaves throughout the day, both direct and indirect light are her favorite. 
 
When it comes to watering, only water her when her soil feels dry. If you notice her leaves start to fall, don’t panic…she’s strong just like you, take a step back from watering and you will see her rise to the sky again.
 
Oh, also, she might not make the best of friends with your furry companion so make sure that she is further away from them!
 
How Geraldine can take care of you:: She might look and feel soft on the outside but trust me when I say she is full of might. She teaches you that failure doesn’t define you, there is always a way to push yourself up past those moments where it feels as though nothing is possible. So breathe, re-evaluate, and rise because you will persevere. 

Bernadette "Relaxation"
​(Lavender)
Lavender has been known to help with providing a calm atmosphere and decreasing anxiety.
How to take care of Bernadette: she loves to bask in the sun throughout the day. Her favorite place to be is near a south-facing window, which gives a lot of sunlight. She does loves to be thoroughly hydrated, but overwatering can result in root rot, so allow her soil to become slightly dry between waterings.  Bernadette is a homebody, which makes her an excellent companion indoors beside you.

How Bernadette can take care of you: Bernadette's main goal is to help you feel calm and relaxed. She understands that life can be stressful, especially now, so let her scent help you inhale and exhale through those difficult times. Having Bernadette near you may not solve your problems, but can help bring you the silence and serenity that you need to approach the situation in a more calm state of being.
