I grow plants for many reasons: to please my eye or to please my soul, to challenge the elements or to challenge my patience, for novelty or for nostalgia, but mostly for the joy in seeing them grow. There are so many different types of gardens, and they are all unique to the gardener that created each of them. Just as the inside of our homes is a reflection of our personality, so it is in our gardens. In my blog you will come across posts related to the growing and using of all kinds of vegetables, fruits and herbs available throughout the world.

            Over the years, I have studied about these real jewels and collected information and have kept them in a file for that special gift or project. I thought that I would share a few of them with you. Perhaps one will touch your heart and you can make a piece of garden art to put it on....if you do...I will expect to see a post about it!


Enjoy reading!
