BioI kill every plant I touch. I have killed philodendrons, spider plants, aloe, English ivy, garden mint... I have even killed those little air-plants that don't need to be watered. It's my superpower.
But.
I have a huge, empty yard. I have friends and family who are botanists and gardeners. I am intelligent, resourceful, and stubborn as hell. And I have garden envy.
Surely, this is a recipe for disaster. Surely, this will only end in tears and plant carnage on a massive scale. But maybe, just maybe, I can take my dream of a lovely yard and make it a reality.
This journal is the epic saga of this struggle. Look upon my compost pile, ye mighty, and despair!
