One person's thoughts and likes might be totally unusual and different, but does that mean they are not worthy of friendship? Does the community look at them as special or not normal?

This story is about a young girl who loves unusual, normally detested plants. Prunella was born to parents who are ardent gardeners. However, rather than having a green thumb like her parents, Prunella had a purple thumb!
