forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God..."
Gardening Quote of the Day
"My lilac trees are old and tall;
I cannot reach their bloom at all.
They send their perfume over trees
And roof and streets, to find the bees.
(from My Garden Is a Pleasant Place)
"( -- Louise Driscoll, American poet)
