SYNOPSIS:

Miss Winn tends to her garden of foster children, humanity's forgotten seedlings. They are disposable, tossed aside and left to wither away. Miss Winn patiently teaches her charges to care for something other than themselves, a plant as pathetic as their own lives. As with all gardens, despite the best intentions of the gardener, not every seed grows to maturity.

A dramatic series, with comedic overtone, that explores real-life problems and situations faced by foster parents, foster children, social workers and families.
