I've been trying to get a hold of this flower, blue moon woodland phlox, for like years now. But it's inexplicably elusive. I first saw it in the woods as a youth, and I've been chasing that high ever since. I can only describe my favorite color as 'phlox blue', which of course nobody knows. It's like a mix between light blue and purple. The flowers are also shaped like little stars, and the smell is nice too.

So of course I tried growing some myself, but ended up failing step one. They turned to mold. I tried planting them outside anyway and the squirrels dug them up and left only the husks of the growth mediums. It was like they were beating a dead horse, and I was the horse.

I don't know what happened. I guess I'll just try to buy some that people have already made. I swear 50% of the plants I touch instantly die. STARDEW VALLEY LIES TO YOU. I got arrogant because I actually grew up near a farm and helped grow things and this never happened... What's wrong with me now?? This accursed power...!
