At best I am what I call "the reluctant" gardener. My father was an avid gardener. My dear friend Rick is also an avid gardener...just as his parents are. However, gardening is not my forte. There is enough of the gardening gene in me that plants thrive under my care. As far as choices go I'd rather curl up with a good book, take a long walk along the ocean, or cook...but not garden.
So now I have a yard that is one-half acre in size and the previous owners beautifully landscaped the property. I am so thankful that it is landscaped with perennials because that means the extent of my gardening chores involve raking the dead leaves of autumn out of the garden beds and pruning those shrubs and bushes that need pruning. My gardens and yard now look beautiful but it is hardly because of me.
I will happily take credit for it though!
E'nuff!
