I don't like gardening, so that sounds like a win to me. I can kill any plant. I don't enjoy that. I enjoy having nice plants around me.

Hum, suddenly you have exactly the most skill wanted in gardening. People will pay for your magic touch on all those stinking needles and weeds out of control. If it works also with moles, people will make queues at your door with marry me proposals.

Maybe I'd feel differently if I didn't have a growing history of plant murder behind me.

Unfortunately, I believe a necessary pre-condition for my skill to work is that you need to have a genuine desire for the plant to survive first.

It seems near certain it will die shortly afterward.

Every gardener is a cereal murderer; almost as the same level than bakers. One of the best secrets of gardening is that most plants are clones, so is like exploring a video-game with infinite lives. After killing exactly the same plant five times, it starts improving.

The problem is that I most certainly does not have the patience for that. I'd rather have automation, or hired help, do it for me.
