It Has Taken Me Half

For The Best Building And Planting...the Architect And Gardener Must Have Some Knowledge Of Each Other's Business, And Each Must Regard With Feelings Of Kindly Reverence The Unknown Domains Of The Other's Higher Knowledge.

To Plant And Maintain A Flower Border, With A Good Scheme For Colour, Is By No Means The Easy Thing That Is Commonly Supposed.

What Is One To Say About June, The Time Of Perfect Young Summer, The Fulfillment Of The Promise Of The Earlier Months, And With As Yet No Sign To Remind One That Its Fresh Young Beauty Will Ever Fade.

It Has Taken Me Half A Lifetime Merely To Find Out What Is Best Worth Doing, And A Good Slice Out Of Another Half To Puzzle Out The Ways Of Doing It.

The Love Of Gardening Is A Seed Once Sown That Never Dies.
