Good question, I'm a North Dakota "Master Gardener"and my fingers and thumbs are always dirty. Maybe it should be changed to "dirt thumb".

I believe the term you are relating to is called green thumbed.
Plants are green and a person who gardens works with their hands a lot in the garden.

growing, live plants are usually green. Having a green thumb means you can grow just about anything in every type of situation. Just like a black thumb means you cannot keep anything alive.

They keep on fiddling with their plants and get green fingers.
