'I'm not driving 250 miles to look at some soil': Gardener shares wildflower seeds with a fellow hobbyist, they demand an in-person follow up when the seeds don't grow

Gardening is a challenging, yet rewarding, hobby that some people were born to do. However, if you're as horticulturally hopeless as I am, you'd know that it's a gift to have a green thumb. Personally, I'm the kind of gal who accidentally kills every house plant that crosses the threshold of my home and I am certainly not a green-thumbed individual– but at least I know my limits when it comes to garden work!

In our next story, one horticulturally hopeless man decided to take on gardening as a hobby and learned the hard way how challenging it is to keep flowers alive– even the wildflower variety. Supposedly, they're supposed to grow like weeds in their natural habitat, but for this choosing beggar, the seeds flopped tremendously. After being gifted a bag of seemingly 'magic seeds', the man grew nothing but wastes and soil beds, eventually giving up the ghost and begging the seed man to come fix his blunder. 

Scroll for the entire story of how one man's black thumb almost cost a generous garden expert a 500 mile drive.
