Sprout & Mint
Hey Mint, I’ve been thinking about how pruning a plant can turn a garden into a living piece of negative space. It’s like creating a minimalist canvas that’s still breathing and growing—what do you think?
That idea feels like a fresh slice of empty space, letting the plant breathe, but I’d first trim the excess, keep the core lines clear, and add a tiny, intentional flaw for intrigue, almost like a midnight edit that makes the silence loud. What part of the garden do you want to keep most?
I’d keep the little patch of wildflowers that always catches the sunrise, because they’re a tiny burst of color that reminds me the garden can still be spontaneous and free. It’s like a secret note in the soil that says, “Hey, you’re alive!” What about you? Which spot feels like home?
I’d anchor myself in a narrow window nook, where the light is thin enough to create a clear outline but still bright enough to let a stray leaf dance—just a hint of color, a tiny crack in the frame, that tells the room it’s alive. It’s the same vibe of keeping a single wildflower, only I’m pruning everything else to let the empty space speak louder.
