It&amp;#x27;s called Mother Earth&amp;#x27;s Plantasia, because it was primarily distributed at plant boutique in L.A. named &amp;quot;Mother Earth&amp;quot;.&lt;p&gt;My dad had a copy lying about that I used to listen to in high school when I&amp;#x27;d be studying. It turns out its become a cult classic online, as a sort of pioneering electronic work [1][2]&lt;p&gt;Anyways, included with the original album is a wee book suggesting that plants benefit hugely from listening to music. Whether that claim has any basis in reality aside, Garson also names 15 hassle-free plants for the home. I can attest to the fact that they are easy to take care of as a relatively new indoor gardener.&lt;p&gt;They include:&lt;p&gt;Chinese Evergreen, Sansevieria, Spathiphyllum, Palm, Nephthytis, Philodendron, Boston Fern, Piggyback, Maranta, Dracaena, Dieffen-bachia, Aspidistra, Pothos, Ficus and Grape Ivy.&lt;p&gt;[1] &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.sacredbonesrecords.com&amp;#x2F;collections&amp;#x2F;mort-garson&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.sacredbonesrecords.com&amp;#x2F;collections&amp;#x2F;mort-garson&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;[2] &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.dazeddigital.com&amp;#x2F;music&amp;#x2F;article&amp;#x2F;44931&amp;#x2F;1&amp;#x2F;mort-garson-mother-earth-plantasia-reissue-history&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.dazeddigital.com&amp;#x2F;music&amp;#x2F;article&amp;#x2F;44931&amp;#x2F;1&amp;#x2F;mort-gars...&lt;/a&gt;</text></comment>
