Gardening in a nutshell: "My soul may be a blackened, withered and dry husk, but my plant babies are thriving!"

In the artist's notes he wrote that this represents "the place where the dead end up before going to Heaven."

I feel your pain. I've tried but I just don't have a green thumb. The only thing that I can grow consistently is basil.
