Every woman in my family has the magical green thumb, except me......I can kill an air fern! Yes the talent for growing things, called "having a green thumb" is real, not a myth.

Definitely there is -- my mom can take flowers out of a vase that have been dying for a week, stick them in the ground and have a plant grow by next season! Everything she touches blooms, roots, grows -- it's just amazing. She has the worst exposure at her condo -- northwest -- and the most amazing flower garden imaginable. Me -- I'm the brown thumb (LOL!) -- but both brothers got her green thumb as well.

Yeah, I think there is such a thing as having a "green thumb" because I've seen people kill houseplants -lol- and all you have to do is water them!

Having a "green thumb" is just a saying that means you are very good at growing plants, flowers etc.

Just as there are people who are good at:
making money
baking bread
raising kids
painting pictures
solving probems
there are people who are good at growing things.

Yes, It either refers to being talented in the garden, or having gangrene.
