I am running Plant Princess basing on the Talaya-Chirubime lock down. I want to run Fragrance Storm, however I don't like the cost to destroy one of my plants. i mean it has its moments but it doesn't seem like a nice way of keeping my field presence. Then I noticed something about the wording, "destroy 1 face up plant on the field and draw 1 card." What I want to know is if the destruction is actually a cost for draw or a simultaneous effect. If I have 2 Talaya, Princess of Cherry Blossoms on the field can i just by-pass destruction and have the free draw power? If so then this in certain circumstances becomes many times stronger than an upstart. I have looked along the other forums and the card rulings for this and nothing has really given me the answer i need. If someone can help me out I'd appreciate it.
