Gardening Quote of the Day

"The toad has indeed no superior as a destroyer of noxious insects, and he possesses no bad habits and is entirely inoffensive himself, every owner of a garden should treat him with utmost hospitality. (from An Island Garden)"

(Celia Thaxter, American poet (born 7/28/1835))
