honeybees

. . . the difference between great daffodils and common ones is not so vast as one thinks in the first flush of excitement when one starts being serious about daffodils.

Good gardening is very simple, really. You just have to learn to think like a plant.

There is nothing like pruning a grapevine for training oneself to think like a plant.

A garden is a lovely thing
But gardens are not made
By saying "Oh how beautiful"
And sitting in the shade!
