So I was just gardening trimming my plants harvesting my tomatoes, and removing any pests from my raised beds when it hit me severely different varieties of plants need cold and frost, this mostly applies to bulb plants and stone fruit trees but I digress, from most bulb plants like ranunculus, Dahlias, and onions. They need cold in order to grow. And some varieties bloom in the winter, like snow crocus, witch hazel, and snowdrop. They just pop right through the snow.
The reason plants need cold is because the cold puts them into hibernation so to speak and let them rest so that way they can produce the next year. Peaches depending on the variety need at least 600 hours of frost.
I had also learned that NASA is studying snake plants, and they found out that snake plants are so good at filtering air that you would only need 15 plants in a 1800 square foot house if you were completely cut off from outside air and be completely fine.
so this got me thinking, Danny Phantom loves space and anything to do with space. So Danny being the space nerd that he is decides to go get a snake plant and puts it in his room. As usual shenanigans en-sue and he completely forgets about the plant for over a month. When Danny goes to check on the plant to throw it out because it’s probably dead. Lo and behold it is perfectly fine and thriving. Because fun fact snake plants are an extremely low maintenance plant, those things are harder to kill than a cactus.
So Danny decides to start a little garden for himself because he heard from Sam that gardening was a very relaxing activity. So he plants a few different plants just to try and see. Two cherry tomatoes, a cucumber, some garlic to keep pests away, and for some reason a peach tree.
a few weeks go by and Danny finds that no matter what he does he can’t get anything to grow and everything but the peach three dies so he pulls out the tomato and cucumber plants and throws them away, he leaves the peach and garlic alone because he’s still holding out hope for the peaches and he forgot where the garlic was.
Anyways time goes on and he forgets about the garden months go by and he decides to one day check on the peach tree he planted and what he sees shocks his whole family there in the yard was a peach tree twice the size of the small half dead twig it used to be, lush and heavy with sweat, plump, and juicy peaches. Jazz deciding to pluck a peach of the tree takes a bite, and juice cascades down her chin like a waterfall, Jazz squeals and how sweet and delicious the peaches are
So Danny in his infinite wisdom invites Sam an Tucker over to get their opinion.
Danny: So what do you think?
Tucker: Ehh, It’s no meatloaf, but pretty good.
Sam: …
Danny: … Everthing ok Sam?
Sam whispering: …how
Danny: sorry what was that I didn’t quite hear you Sam.
Sam: HOW DID YOU GROW THIS PEACH!!!!
Danny startled: w-what I don’t understand, what did I do
Sam getting more and more angry😡: HOW DID YOU GROW PEACHES WHEN EVERY PLANT YOU TOUCH DIES!! NOT EVEN I CAN’T GROW PEACHES THIS GOOD!!
Danny: I don’t know! I planted it and then it died! I don’t know how it came back!
Tucker siting in a corner watching the drama unfold picking at grass then pulling up a baseball sized clove of garlic: uhhhh hey guys is this a weed??
Danny : huh I forgot I planted those.
Sam jumping on Danny pulling at his shirt: TELL ME YOUR SECRETS FENTON!!!!!
As it turns out that while Danny emits an aura of cold and frost that most plants hate, cold hardy plants and bulbs love it.
Later on Sam gives Danny a couple of different bulbs to plant. When asked why Sam replies “no reason, just thought you would like them” then turns around and laughs creepily with her finger tips together.
Sam: hahahaha 😈 soon it will be I with the blue ribbon and not Damian Wayne. Later Danny finds out that every year when Sam enters her plants in flower competitions she always comes in second behind Damion Wayne. After learning that Damian is a spoiled rich kid with a stick up his butt larger than a black walnut (look it up, black walnut trees are massive) Danny is absolutely on board, he even comes to some of the competitions just to see the look on Damian’s face. And so proceeds a very heated and long rivalry. He even gets kidnapped in the middle of the night once by Damian Wayne asking him what sort of diabolical chemicals he uses.
