On Monday, he arrived to Jailyn’s house with what he thought was a giant purple flower.

It turns out, it was the leafy cabbage instead.

Jailyn said she and her mom laughed when they realized Jamarcus’ mistake, but that hasn’t stopped hearts from going aflutter anyway.

People on social media have told Jailyn she’s got a good catch, and that this is one of the cutest things they’ve seen online.
