Christina Ricci is scared of plants.

The 30-year-old actress hates gardening and admits she can't even go near a pot plant at someone's house because the SOiL makes her feel "dirty".

Speaking about her phobia, she said: "They are dirty! If I have to touch one, then it freaks me out. Honestly, I can't go near them."

And plants aren't the only thing Ricci has problems with.

The 'Speed Racer' star struggles in the kitchen and admits she can only cook two dishes.

She previously said: "I can cook about two things. I can boil hot water for the only pasta I can make. I blame my career, actors work crazy schedules and we are away so often. I just don't the time to learn how to make stuff. But I need to, when you get back home after shooting there is always a great desire to create some kind of normalcy."
