At the beginning of the summer, I decided that I wanted to plant some flowers so I went to Kmart to the plant section and looked at all the seed packets. Although I was very tempted to pick up a flowering plant and create amazing hyperbole's about how I grew it, I decided to do it the hard way and get some green thumb genes moving.
Naturally, as I purchased the seeds I didn’t actually READ the potentially pertinent information about how to grow and nurture these seeds. I purchased my seeds based on the pretty flowered pictures on the outside while fantasizing about how beautiful they will look on my windowsill. I envisioned it and it was as good as real.

So...I set off to the house with my top soil and 3 plant pots and well … I figured, why plant 3 pots when I can do just one and see what happens. My fantasy was the one big pot overflowing with pretty flowers. That being said, Anje Anj, poured the seeds from 6 or 7 little packets of Kmart’s finest all into one flower pot.

In about 7 days I saw some action. I saw spouts and I got truly excited so I became very dedicated at my watering schedule, I even fingered the soil to test the wetness and I became quite adept at rotating the pot to ensure adequate sunlight.

Yesterday, I was looking at my pot which now has lots of healthy green things growing out of it. I have yet to see one actual flower but I am hopeful since there are other new seedlings bursting and rising out of the soil. I found a packet of Forget me Not seeds and I threw them in the same pot. All I wanted all summer was to see one flower grow out of a plant pot and here we are, two weeks to the end of summer and I have tremendously healthy bush (which is what it looks like) growing out of the pot and I am wondering – where the hell are my flowers? The packets had pictures of flowers and I am yet to see one pretty petal in my window sill.

Of course, the other issue is that I sorta randomly selected these seeds and threw them all in the pot and since I cannot identify one from another, I wonder, if and when they do sprout what the hell they are! I may have given birth to decuplets and I don’t know who they belong to! Who is my flower daddy?
