Gardening Quote of the Day

"It is a maxim universally agreed upon in agriculture, that nothing must be done too late; and again, that everything must be done in its proper season; while there is a third precept which reminds us that opportunities lost can never be regained."

(Pliny the Elder, 1st century Roman natural historian, scientist)
