Jack’s dad hired a new gardener to fix up Motel69Star’s garden. Over the years, the garden became unkempt and messy, with half-dead plants and overgrown flowerbeds.
The new gardener was an Asian man named Henry, and he completely redesigned the garden from top to bottom.
The only problem was that all the plants he put in the garden were dead!
“These are just empty stems,” Jack said, looking in dismay at the plants that hung in baskets, sat in pots, and filled Motel69Star’s little garden.
“I don’t really understand it either, Jack, but Henry told me they were beautiful. We’ll just have to trust him,” said Jack’s dad, trying to sound optimistic.
Jack couldn’t believe someone would think the empty stems were beautiful. The garden looked creepy – a bunch of skinny, empty stalks reaching toward the sky. It was perfect for Motel69Star, he supposed. The ghosts and ghouls would love it!
Later, Jack asked Henry what kind of plants he put in the garden. “They’re orchids,” Henry answered.
“Orchids?” Jack repeated. “They’re so ugly,” he said.
