The gate of Memory swings,
And my heart goes into the garden
And walks with the olden things."

The song of the birds for mirth.
You are nearer God's Heart in a garden.
Than anywhere else on earth."

An enchanted place where colors are brighter,
The air is softer,
And the morning more fragrant than ever before”

A good garden must be a piece of art.
The basic principles of contrast, texture,
dimension and proportion are very important
to understand. But there must be an idea!
A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing, and the lawn mower is broken.
All gardeners live in beautiful places because they make them so.

All through the long winter, I dream of my garden. On the first day of spring, I dig my fingers deep into the soft earth. I can feel its energy, and my spirits soar.
An open home, an open heart, here grows a bountiful harvest.

Blossom by blossom the spring begins
Climate is what we expect, weather is what we get.
Don't let your ferns freeze to death, you never know the outcome.
Every blade of grass has an angel that bends over it and whispers, "Grow! Grow!"
fresh as a daisy!
Gardening Rule: When weeding, the best way to make
sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.
Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old time is still a-flying:
And this same flower that smiles today
Tomorrow will be dying.

Happiness held is the seed....
Happiness shared is the flower.
He who plants a garden, plants happiness.
I value my garden more for being full of blackbirds than of cherries, and very frankly give them fruit for their songs.
If I had a single flower for every time I think about you, I could walk forever in my garden.
In my garden there is a large place for sentiment. My garden of flowers is also my garden of thoughts and dreams. The thoughts grow as freely as the flowers, and the dreams are as beautiful.

Look for a lovely thing

It is not far -
It never will be far.

Many things grow in the garden that were never sown there.
Mother Earth is one of the best teachers I ever had.
My green thumb came only as a result of the mistakes I made while learning to see things from the plant's point of view. ~H. Fred Ale
My MIND is a GARDEN; my thoughts are the SEEDS. I can grow FLOWERS or I can grow WEEDS.
Take some dirt, add some seeds,
Pour on water, pull the weeds,
Rest a minute, work for hours,
Then wait ... and smell the flowers.
The first gatherings of the garden... of salads, radishes and herbs made me feel like a mother about her baby - how could anything so beautiful be mine. And this emotion of wonder filled me for each vegetable as it was gathered every year. There is nothing that is comparable to it, as satisfactory or as thrilling, as gathering the vegetables one has grown.
The fruit of Silence is prayer.
The fruit of Prayer is faith.
The fruit of Faith is love.
The fruit of Love is service.
The fruit of Service is peace.
-Mother Teresa
The hardest thing to raise in my garden is my knees
THE MAIDEN WHO,ON THE FIRST OF MAY,GOES TO THE FIELDS AT THE BREAK OF DAY,AND WASHES IN DEW FROM THE HAWTHORN TREE SHALL FOREVER BEAUTIFUL BE.
The morning sun,
the new sweet earth
and the great silence.
The most noteworthy thing about gardeners is that they are always optimistic, always enterprising, and never satisfied. They always look forward to doing something better than they have ever done before.
There is a way that nature speaks, that land speaks. Most of the time we are simply not patient enough, quiet enough, to pay attention to the story.
To forget how to dig the earth and to tend the soil is to forget ourselves.
Weeds are flowers too, once you get to know them.
Where flowers bloom, so does hope.
Where thou art, that is home.
You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands: you shall be happy, and it shall be well with you.
You'll never learn unless you get dirty.
You're the perfect gardener for this flower.
~ Spring unlocks the flowers to paint the laughing soil.
“And the secret garden bloomed and bloomed and every morning revealed new miracles.”
