Spring has sprung! At least here, in the Northern hemisphere. Forests and meadows as well as neighborhoods and gardens are once again flourishing with life and color, infusing us with positive vibes.
But if for some reason you can't go outside to enjoy all of this beauty, there's a place on the Internet that perfectly captures it too. Sure, it's not the real deal, but it's as close as it gets.
There's a subreddit called Botanical Erotica (I'm paraphrasing a bit), and its 218K members are constantly sharing high-quality images of plants, including trees, flowers, and even fungi. Continue scrolling and enjoy some of its most popular posts of all time.
