    I don’t get it. Did the bucket become a planting pot?

      The leaky bucket caused the row of flowers to grow.

      Moral is something like, ‘even if you think you’re failing at a task, your benefit is simply not being measured / seen.’

        Or you’re a failure. Both are possible options. It’s a nice story though.

        Great. Now they’ll have to do more work to remove the flowers.

        That is just way too subtle.

        That’s great and all but I can’t eat flowers, my nana broke her back from the extra work you caused and my wife is deathly allergic to flowers, if you were only good at your one job we could have saved my entire family, go sit in the scrap heap and think about what you’ve done.

        But flowers don’t come from water…

          Flowers need water to grow, so if one side is dry and the other has water it would make sense for flowers to only grow on the wet side, right?

            That little dribble of water isn’t going to be anywhere near enough water to germinate a seed.
