"Chlorophilia


Chlorophilia (Greek: chloros pale green + philia love) is a physical or sexual attraction to plants, particularly trees. The term was coined by journalist Bill Hoss in
2004 to describe scientists who take on an attraction towards Bonsai trees.

Overview: Although Chlorophilia is practiced little in the world, Chlorophilia is sometimes attributed to activities like tree-hugging, or an over-the-top interest in Gardening. There are no laws that ban Chlorophilia in any country in the world.

Chlorophilia in fiction: In the final episode of Blackadder the Third, King George arrives and arranges a marriage to a Rose bush. DC Comics have implied Chlorophilia through their characters Poison Ivy and Floronic Man, both of whom have an absolute passion for flowers and plants.
