Plant Ownership

Basically I just look at my plants and they die.

Seriously though, I am doing something wrong. I have managed to kill every single one of my plants, even the “unkillable” ones, like cacti and succulents. The worst are orchids. They are impossible. Mine always die and turn into barren sticks. Honestly, it’s been much easier to keep my dog alive at this point. Anyway, I have come to terms with the fact that I will never be like my “expectations” drawing. Though every time I see a cactus I still want to buy it :( My solution has been to just buy nice looking plastic plants! (And yes I drew myself in Birkenstocks because that is the type of plant lady I aspire to be).
