Gardener's dilemma


I might have exaggerated on the title a bit, 
but let the truth be told:

I AM NO GARDENER, and I LACK THE GREEN THUMB 

I've told you that before!
Remember here 
on picture No. 4 one of the plants made it, the other one is a gonner :(
No. 5 made and its doing good :)
No. 6 watermelons seeds, no luck!
I even gave watermelon seeds a second try, but failed again!

I had some succulents inside that died, 
some outside that died.

Was it too much sun, too little sun?
Too much water, too little water?
Better on a pot or on the ground?

I went and asked the experts, I've been doing some reading online.
Still a bit confused, but in good hopes.

I have some new succulents inside
Also, I've recently put new succulents in pots outside
(you can see that on my header)
I planted some birds of paradise
and also some philodendrons
(I really want these to survive)
This past weekend, I bought some trellis and  planted a couple of star jasmine vines.

Basically I want to have  a pretty garden and be proud of it!
Is it too much to ask??





On the meantime I took pictures of one of my favorites while it is still alive!
I am hoping my next post on gardening is a happy one.
I will share some more pictures once I feel proud of my garden.
