i got the green thumb gene!!

I’m so excited! I thought I was a gardening failure after my green thumb parents helped me plant a garden in my backyard last year and everything died a month later. But, now my garden in the backyard is flourishing! The bougainvellia are growing like mad and the allysum have been going strong for a loooong time even need trimming!

Even my indoor plants are doing well. My corn plant in the front room started growing shoots of what looked like mini koosh balls out of it and I thought it was infested with something, but then looked it up and it’s very very rare, but corn plant will flower on occassion and when it does, it only does about once every 7 YEARS! And even better it’s one of the most fragrant flowers imagineable, it’s stronger than hyacinth but smells like hyacinth. The entire downstairs and half the upstairs smells of it. I love it!!

Here’s some pics:
