Gardening Quote of the Day

"Pansies, lillies, kingcups, daisies, Let them live upon their praises; Long as there's a sun that sets, Primroses will have their glory, Long as there are violets, They will have a place in story: There is a flower that shall be mine, 'Tis the little Celandine... "

(William Wordsworth, English poet)
