PKA Candidate

It’s official. My green thumb really is as brown as I thought. I swore off anything even remotely horticulture-related, especially inside plants, when I managed to kill some cacti many years ago; but the bamboo was so pretty and tempting that I couldn’t resist buying a few pieces to “green-up” my apartment. After all, it only required water and no direct sunlight ~ no potting, no fertilizing, nothing I could mess up on. Apparently I did.

The once beautiful dark green plant in my kitchen window (still in water) is now a sickly shade of yellow in its death throes. I surrender! Wonder if there’s a chapter of Plant Killers Anonymous near me? I'm desperately in need of a sponsor.
