Gardening Quote of the Day

"...such gardens are not made by singing:- Oh how beautiful! and sitting in the shade while better men than we go out and start their working lives at grubbing weeds from gravel paths with broken dinner knives."

( -- Rudyard Kipling, British poet, Nobel laureate writer)
