"For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God..."

Gardening Quote of the Day

"It is utterly forbidden to be half-hearted about gardening. You have got to love your garden, whether you like it or not. (from Garden Rubbish, 1936)"

( -- W.C. Sellar, R.J. Yeatman)
