Pride of place in the front window of some British homes of the 1920s
was a large plant in a brass pot. Often an Aspidistra*. The front room
was often used for entertaining, beer of variable quality was often
served.
Aspidistras don't like stale beer. They wilt! They get 'hung-over'
literally.
PS. * Look up Gracie Fields and "The biggest Aspidistra in the world".
