where tiny humans and tiny plants get the same job: grow or else
means A room set aside for the care of young children, or a place where young plants and trees are raised until they're ready to be planted out or sold.
from From the Latin 'nutrire,' to nourish or suckle — the same root that feeds 'nurse,' 'nutrition,' and 'nourish.' It arrived through Old French 'norture' and Anglo-French 'nourricerie,' meaning the act of bringing up or rearing. The word first meant the rearing of children; the gardener's sense — a plot for bringing up young plants — grew out of that same idea of tending the small until they're strong, and bloomed a little later.
