| Was it in Gone With the Wind that Rhett tells Scarlett that Tara is in her blood? That she will always love the soil? I guess that is how I feel about my gardens. I love to work the soil and get all dirty working the plots. I love to see new seeds sprout and have the perennials come back year after year. I love when you can harvest your own vegetables and cook them for dinner. I mourn the loss of a favorite plant and worry when a bad storm comes and winds threaten my crops. There is nothing to compare to having a wild water lily bloom in your own back yard. It is like having a bit of heaven in your own busy world. I love to come back here after a busy day and feel the tension fade away. Better yet is to have friends and family gather for lots of fun. I feel this is an extension of my home and I'd rather entertain here then in any room. My newest venture is creating furniture planters. I made this chair with a maple that fell during a storm last week. The seat holds vines and will fill in with grass seeds. There are morning glories planted below the chair to wind around the limbs and create a beautiful vision on greenery.
