Practice Plant
I’m no green thumb, have never been good at growing plants, and the only thing that seems to stay alive is my cactus which by the way fights everyday against my dog. The Flower Nurse is an artificial potted plant by where flowers take on the form on information expressing its needs via color changes. Each flower displays a single barometric reading whilst the droop of the leaves indicate when it’s time to pay more attention and figure out what’s wrong.

oh come on, let’s grow a real flower, it’s not really that difficult, why use fake one ?
How many real flowers do you know that have digital climate readouts? This is cute. I don’t want one, though. I’m still stressing out about my Fluff on Facebook. This might give me a full blown anxiety attack.
It’s a geek plant! I love it!
Wow - Now, if we only had a version of this with children, so we could raise them virtually first nefore trying the real thing… SimParenting…
Or perhaps Steven Spielberg’s Artificial Intelligence: A.I.?
