 Honors mothers and motherhood
In the United states its celebrated the second sunday of May

THIS YEAR IS SUNDAY, MAY 12TH

Mother's Day is a celebration honoring mothers and motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society. It is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world, most commonly in March, April or May. It complements Father's Day, a celebration honoring fathers.
Mother's Day is an American invention, and it is not directly descended from the many celebrations of mothers and motherhood that have occurred throughout the world over thousands of years, such as the Greek cult to Cybele, the Roman festival of Hilaria, or the Christian Mothering Sunday celebration. Despite this, in some countries Mother's Day has become synonymous with these older traditions.

In the United States, Mother's Day remains one of the biggest days for sales of flowers, greeting cards, and the like; Mother's Day is also the biggest holiday for long-distance telephone calls

The holidays are over. The decorations have been put away for another year. The house looks a little plain, a little drab. In the greyishness of January, your eye catches something in the corner of the room. Why, it's a houseplant! Funny, but with all of the holiday hubabuloo, you've all but forgotten your houseplants.

Today is THE day to get back to tending to, and loving your houseplants. And, it's also a day to appreciate just how special and important they are. They are therapeutic, lifting your mood and outlook. They add warmth and a calming effect. If you are a gardner, they give you an opportunity to play in the dirt, until spring arrives in the far, distant future.

Growing houseplants is pretty easy. They need a little sunlight, water, occasional nutrients, and a little love..

How to Celebrate Houseplant Appreciation Day:

There are lots of ways to celebrate and enjoy this day. They include:

· Start by making sure that the houseplants you already have, are well watered. Give them a special treat today... a little fertilizer.

· If you do not have any houseplants, or just have a couple, buy a new houseplant (or two) on this day).

· Learn more about the benefits of houseplants to your health.

· Stand by your houseplant and breath in the air! It's giving off oxygen.

· Teach your kids about growing and caring for plants.

· Give a houseplant to a friend, especially the elderly or shut-ins.

· Talk to your plants. Yes, people believe plants respond positively, when you talk to them.

Origin of  Houseplant Appreciation Day:

 

This holiday was created by the folks at The Gardener's Network

It was created for two reasons:

1.      To remind people after the holidays, that their forgotten houseplants need a little attention.

2.      To celebrate beneficial houseplants and to encourage growing houseplants.
