Normally you only get one stem with three flowers on it.  Your mum has done really well.  She must have green fingers!

 

Do you say "green fingers" in turkish when someone is good at gardening or is there another phase you would use?

yeşil parmak don´t have the same ring about it!

might bahçivanlikde iyi be a suitable translation for "green fingered"?

We don´t say "green fingers", but it could be bahçıvanlıkta iyi(good at gardening), bahçıvanlıkta usta(a master in gardening).

 

Normalde bir daldan sadece üç çiçek alırsın. Annen çok iyi başarmış. Bahçıvanlıkta usta olmalı.
