l marito di Grace non era proprio uno stinco di santo ed anche per gli affari non aveva un gran fiuto. Per cui, quando muore (cadendo da un aereo in volo!) lascia la povera donna in un mare di debiti e con la villa ipotecata. Come riuscire a non perdere tutto, per lei che ha sempre vissuto nell'illusione dell'agiatezza? Si potrebbe sfruttare il suo famoso 'pollice verde'. Così, il suo giardiniere Matthew la convince a coltivare una 'strana' piantina, per poi poterla rivendere in città a qualche onesto spacciatore. Tutto sembra filare, mentre le piante attecchiscono con soddisfazione. Ma la donna non è portata per affari illeciti troppo più grandi di lei. Alla fine troverà l'amore e salverà casa e futuro con l'aiuto...di un facoltoso 'cliente' che s'innamora di lei e la sposa.
