I have the thumb of death for all ornamental plants except roses. I grow great roses, but anything else of the ornamental variety is doomed. MY wife does the rest of the houseplants and outdoor ornamentals.
I have a black thumb when it comes to anything other than grass or weeds. Luckily my lovely female accomplice could grow a cactus in Antarctica, so our house is surrounded by wondrous blooming plants of many varieties. Last year some of the sunflowers reached nearly to our second floor windows 14 feet above ground level. This year, she’s concentrating on somewhat shorter plants.

Sounds like a very efficient planting plan. No time will be wasted watering or fertilizing.

At least I get to bring plants and flowers frequently cause they have no life expectancy in my house.
