Growing Gardenias: It’s A Cinch

Herein lies the moral of this story.



If you struggled for 4 years trying to grow gorgeous,

fragrant gardenias in your yard, in Zone 9,

in deep South Texas,

and if you witnessed multiple gardenia plants
you purchased

TURN BLACK AND DIE

while in your care,

and if you actually heard gardenia plants whisper

while you walked past them in nurseries,

”Please, no, no, not me…not me…don’t pick me…”

then this

It’s a Cinch Message

is for you.

You simply buy two plants at a reasonable price ($4 each),

without ANY expectations,

 

adopting a I COULD CARE LESS attitude,

you drive them home,

forget about them,

and then remember to plant them in a shady area,

and they will then bloom.

Who knew?

Apparently, they even bloomed, and I didn’t notice.

And so dear friends,

the message is a simple one.


INDIFFERENCE.

(yes, I know- I not only talk to my plants,

I have a dysfunctional relationship with them as well…)


It’s a cinch!
