"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
"THE TEN LAWS OF GARDENING 1. Nothing ever looks like it does on the seed packet. 2. Your lawn is always slightly bigger than your desire to mow it. 3. Whichever garden tool you want is always at the back of the shed. 4. The only way to ensure rain, is to give the garden a good soaking. 5. Weeds grow at precisely the rate you pull them out. 6. Autumn follows summer, winter follows autumn, drought follows planting. 7. Evergreens go a funny shade of brown in the winter. 8. The only way to guarantee some colour all year round is to buy a garden gnome. 9. However bare the lawn, grass will appear in the cracks between the patio paving stones. 10. "Annuals" mean disappointment once a year."( -- David Heaton, webmaster Organic Gardening From Down Under)
