Were here with Joseph the spray bottle. He has taken some time from his busy schedule to sit down with us here at Sprout Home to answer some questions about what it is he does, regarding plants and such. He seems a bit grumpy and seems to be mumbling curse words under his breath, to be fair Joseph did perform to a sold out show last night, for having no arms or legs Joseph can play a mean keytar. His solo's have been known to go on for hours.


Sprout Home: So Joseph, why are you only touring in Chicago and Brooklyn? Don't other cities need to be misted?


Joseph: I go where i'm needed, I do what I do where it needs to be done... I have misted in other cities, I have misted all over the world, but I do have special love for Chicago and Brooklyn. Both big dirty cities with way too much forced air heat.


Sprout Home: Why are you needed? What do you do for plants?


Joseph: What kind of stupid question is that? I'm needed because you people insist on keeping beautiful tropical plants in your homes, your offices, your restaurants, wherever you feel you need to have some green. And well... your homes are not tropical jungles, they lack humidity you jerks, and I got the humidity! I give the plants a taste of that good good mist, they love it, they can't get enough of it.


Sprout Home: So you give humidity.... We don't get it, what does that do? People know how to water plants, why so much talk about humidity?


Joseph: (mumbling into his iphone something about "getting out to this damn interview") Oh, um... can I smoke in here?


Sprout Home: no, sorry dude, no smoking in the store. But what about the misting again?


Joseph: Yeah yeah, you water your plants and give them the light they need, but go up and take a closer look, your most likely going to see brown tips at the edge of the leaves... that is about your plant needing a drink of my pure clean mist.... i'm leaving, I gotta get over to a meeting with some swedish ivy.
