Green thumb…

Some people have it and other people do not.  I suppose I am one of the do N-O-T’s.   For some reason I can’t things to grow in our tiny garden.   I transplanted some black bamboo.  Granted it sort of looked dead when  I got it but one year later it looks worse than dead:

I just keep it around because I hope it blooms one day.  It isn’t brittle so I take it as a sign it must be alive.  Sadly, I can’t say my green onions are alive…they are beyond hope:

The green onion were alive and I was watering them but I don’t know if it is the location or what, but all my plants and flowers whither up an die.  

I thought Aya’s orchid was dead but some how I got the orchid to bloom:

Good thing we don’t have a house with a yard or else everything would be dead!

bamboo is a weed and green onions are one of the easiest things to grow......c'mon, you're givin' the family a bad rap because you can't grow stuff. At least the orchid bloomed, Grandma would be proud. I used to love going in her back yard to see all the orchids.

i am hoping the bamboo will come back.

the green onions...it is suppose to be easy but NOTHING ever grows in that pot...NOTHING.

i used to have horse's tail in the pot and that died too!

good thing i don't have a big yard.
