Episode Description from the Publisher

A green thumb isn't a trait. It's a myth that's kept more people out of gardens than any actual plant ever has.In this episode of Garden Girls, Dagny gets into why "some people just have it and some people don't" is one of the most damaging ideas in gardening. We talk through the difference between talent and pattern recognition, and the specific mental shift that turns "I ruin everything" into "I'm learning what this plant needs."🎧 New podcast episodes every week.Our main accounts:@meggrowsplants @thecottagepeach Listen on Spotify:https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-garden-girlsFollow us on Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/garden-girls-podcast/id1763113032Follow us on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/gardengirlspod/Follow us on TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@gardengirlspod***Links***Meg's Planting Calendar:https://meg-grows-plants.myshopify.com/collections/allEpic Gardening:https://shop.epicgardening.com/GARDENGIRLSCode for 5% off!GARDENGIRLS*These codes are affiliate links that we receive commissions from and help to support the podcast!*
