This famous research project is commonly known in psychology circles as "the plant study." Why?

▸ Because all the residents in the nursing home received a plant to thank them for participating

▸ Because in some nursing homes, residents are often treated more like plants in a garden than real people

▸ Because keeping plants in residents' rooms provided a homier environment
