Are you a green thumb or a black thumb?

When it comes to plants, do you kill or sustain life? I must admit, I have been a green thumb for about 6 years. I'm shocked!

I kill plants. I always said I have an acid thumb instead of a green one.

Re: Are you a green thumb or a black thumb?

I killed grass when I was in college.

My mom gave me a plant- it died.
She gave me a cactus- it died

So she gave me a pot of grass from our backyard which is indestructible and THAT died too! Chat Icon

I'm terrible. The only thing I've managed to keep alive for two years in a bamboo plant.

I cannot keep a plant alive to save my life! It's a running joke with DH.

Re: Are you a green thumb or a black thumb?

Anything that I want to keep alive, dies... any plant I want to kill.... will NEVER, EVER DIE!!!!! External Image

I have weeds all over the lawn. I am constantly killing weeds in the sidewalk. I have bamboo that I am just barely keeping from overtaking the entire yard.....

Ever since we moved in the house, I've been making stone gardens. I'm pretty good at keeping stone gardens alive... Chat Icon Chat Icon
