My Air Fern died! All i have to do is look at a plant & it will wilt, ask for a priest and it's gone.?

I love to garden. Hours %26amp; hours in my yard %26amp; nothing. My weeds even die. I go to the nursery for help. They sell me everything i need %26amp; more plants. During the ride home the plants toss themself out the car window prefering suicide over coming home with me. I've taking every night school adult education garden class in three counties. Read every garden book in print. I know more about plant care then most pros in the business. Still they die. The little tag they put in the pots with the plant names on them. I use them as tomb stones. Here lies a good plant, gone before it's time. The local nursery owners love it when i walk in. you can see the $$ in their eyes. I was told noone can kill an air fern. Noone! I found my dead this morning. Hung it self in my kitchen. Can anyone help me? Where to turn? What to do?

When I moved to California I thought I knew I was a great gardener. I quickly discovered everything I knew was wrong. I have spent the past 15 years teaching gardening to homeowners as a certified MASTER GARDENER for the univ of calif. A day does not pass that I don't learn something new. I learn from my students. They have taught me everything I know. Now it's my turn to give some pay back. You have seen your last dead plant. You can contact me thru answeres. We will chat, find your problem, cure it %26amp; turn you into a master gardener of your own doing. My time is your time.
Reply:ferns are cool weather plants,,put them in a place where most of the day they get shade,,and water them everyday...most people cant grow ferns to well anyways...this is a plant that takes a lot of loving care
Reply:damn mama, how da hell u kill weeds by accident? r u watering them or sumthin? ur obviously doing sumthin wrong sweetcakes.
Reply:I was the same way, and my mother can grow anything,except one plant and amazingly I can grow it. Its the only plant Ive had for longer than a month. But All i can tell you is to try with different plants. Check out other yards around you and purchase those. Chances are you are paying too much attention to your plants. A little neglect goes along way with some plants. Don't get fragile plants like orchids. And at worst buy a fake plant:)
