From leafy vines to hanging ivy, adding a touch of greenery to your living space adds liveliness and comfort to any atmosphere. If you’re a plant owner, you know that there's more to having a plant than just letting it sit pretty. You have to find the right pot and a good spot with sunlight. You also have to water it just the right amount. But sunlight, food, and water aren't the only ways you can have thriving plants. Scientists recently learned that the mesmerizing sounds of saxophones and pianos perfected in jazz music can stimulate and promote growth in plants. From the tender “A Sunday Kind Of Love” by Etta James to Amy Winehouse’s feisty “Back To Black”, press play and start feeding your botanicals.
