Did I Buy The Right Plants? A Plant Killer Starts Over
Did I Buy the Right Plants? A Plant Killer Starts Over
Some time ago I wrote about my  knack for taking care of indoor plants. (And by "knack" I mean my tendency to kill all living things that I bring into my home.) But despite the soul-crushing experience of watching yet another plant die under my care, I was determined to try again. After all, as was so wisely said by a number of readers in  this post offering advice to beginner gardeners, even the best gardeners started out killing a ton of plants. So it was with a renewed sense of purpose and a positive outlook that I walked into the annual members-only plant sale at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden last night. My goal? To buy the hardiest, hardest-to-kill plants there.
