And something happened recently that I decided to not only put words on paper but also on a moving screen. So, my friends and I know me to be a plant serial killer not because I intentionally want to hurt the plant but because I have a special love for them.

So, I’ve been dubbed a “dark thumb.” And yeah, I’ve killed too many a cacti, it’s so shameful.
