A Secret Garden
*** A Picture Album ***
Private gardens, big and small, provide respite from the cares of the outside world. Hodge-podge or formally arranged, a well-kept collection is a joy. When a plant grows and thrives under your care, your level of self-confidence grows. Optimism for daily life perks up. Things are looking good. Great therapy! When your pot floweth over, spread the cheer around. Trim your plants and root the cuttings for others to enjoy. In the spirit of good fellowship, someone will periodically open their sanctuary to visitors. Sometimes there is a yard sale. Free or very inexpensive cuttings, new plants and new perspectives are enjoyed. Here is a chance to look into one of our local gardens.
