Lovely! I leave the exterior of the house including the garden to other half, it's gives him satisfaction and sometimes even joy. In the winter he brings whatever potted plants he can in and nurses them along with his collection of orchids that bloom in secession so I always have one to to enjoy in my "office." Perhaps I'll tear myself away from (still) tending to the living thing -- my kids, my aging mother-- and the man and dig my hands into some dirt! You never fail to inspire me!

Lovely reflection. I slip into making everything “just right” in my garden and writing too 💛

Good morning, I too used to think, one day I’ll get my garden right. Hah! Mother Earth laughs. Still, we persist. 💚

We have 4 plots in the community garden, seeds, baby plants... but the old wasband hasn't bothered to do anything about it. Follow up is hard. Such a tool. He had no idea how much I did for him and the family.
