Bedeutung
The act of providing water to plants.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In cities like Córdoba, watering the plants in the 'patios' is an art form. They use long poles with cans attached to reach high-hanging pots on the walls. It is common to water the sidewalk ('regar la banqueta') in front of the house to cool down the air and keep dust down, not just the plants. The 'Plant Parent' (Padre/Madre de plantas) trend is huge in Spanish-speaking social media, using hashtags like #plantasdeinterior.
