Mint Blossom's parents died when she was just a foal. Her Aunt Cherry Blossom raised her in Fillydelphia. Mint Blossom, developed a liking for her aunt's line of work, gardening. She earned her cutie mark as a filly for growing her own sub-garden within her aunt's. Life was good, until Mint Blossom grew up and moved to Canterlot. Why she moved, she couldn't tell you; it could have just been a temperature change. She attended Canterlot University ( CU ) until an accident occurred in Fillydelphia, killing her aunt. Mint Blossom now becomes the gardener of her aunt's prized garden. Life is calm, quiet, and tranquil until a strange new pony comes to town. Could this pony have something to do with the death of Mint Blossom's parents and aunt? Will the pony tell her what it is hiding? Will Mint Blossom ever be the same again?
