I once wanted to plant a garden, and I thought that all I had to do, was pick flowers off the bushes outside our apartments (I wanted a garden of these flowers) and stick their stems in the ground and water them and they'd grow. Our upstairs neighbors passed by and asked what I was doing, I said planting flowers and asked them to tell me if they saw them growing.
A childhood belief about plants

others believed things like this
- I used to believe people grew from spores and when we got old, we'd grow leaves and flowers etc— Calvin (from my pet tiger Hobbes)
- I used to falsely believe that planting a fruit pip in the garden would actually grow a tree or bush.— Natasha
- All flowers had exactly five petals and two leaves.— MD Caruso
- I used to believe that flowerbeds were beds for flowers.— Nina Green
- When I was a child I used to belive that fairies were born from the flowers.— fantasy
- I used to think watering dead flowers would bring them back to life.— Natasha
