Sorry, I do my own work.
Edit: You can whine all you want. I just finished a semester of 3 very difficult classes
(Soil Science, IPM – Integrated Pest Management, and Woody Plant Propagation) while working full time.
My IPM class required a portfolio that ended up being 25 pages long. It took me 2 1/2 months to do the research and develop the templates for the project.
So go cry somewhere else.
Oh and BTW — I ACED all three classes.

petunia, a beautiful flower used in garden beds and container gardening. it’s petals dashing with an array of colors pleasing human kind for all of its generations.
hydrangea, native to asia, clusters of flowers that amuse our minds and satisfy our need to care for something beautiful. hydrangeas have been inspiring our creative sides for years and years to come.
daisy, can’t help but make you smile, thriving in almost any type of soil, needing less watering than most flowers the daisy is indeed a plethora of happiness.
mimosa, or silk tree. native to asia and considered invasive. the tree flowers all year except for winter. they grow so big, die and fall over.
hope i wasn’t to late, hope i helped, editing is of course needed for capitalization and punctuation.
good luck.
