That means “PPF”: Plant Parent Forever
The abbreviation “PPF” is used by people who have a green thumb. It stands for “Plant Parent Forever”, which in German means “plant mother/father forever”.
It is used by people who are proud that they have a knack for plants and who identify with this trait. But the self-designation is usually meant with a wink. Whether it refers to houseplants, herb growers, or gardening professionals is immaterial.

This is how “PPF” is used
“PPF” is mostly used on social media profiles or in profile descriptions of dating apps such as Tinder or Bumble. If your feed is also full of pictures of your plant children, you can definitely call yourself a “PPF”. But even if you don’t nerd around publicly with your plant knowledge, the shortcut in your Tinder bio is a good idea. This gives you a first topic of conversation when someone slides into your DMs.
Here are a few examples of using “PPF”:
- In the profile description: “Marla K., feminist and LGBTQ ally. PPF! Feel free to message me if you know how I can save my tomato plant.”
- “Hey, so you’re a PPF too? I take care of my houseplants like they’re my kids haha. Obsessed!”
