"I've been embracing failure. I've been enjoying putting it on my social media and I like to play a game of 'dead or not'. It looks like it's mainly a stick but maybe it'll come back to life. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. It doesn't matter if it works out or it doesn't. If you have a go with gardening, that's the joy of it and a lot of the time it's the way it makes you feel.", he said.
