Help us to be ever faithful gardeners of the spirit, who know that without darkness nothing comes to birth, and without light, nothing flowers.
–Mary Sarton
A garden is a grand teacher. It teaches patience and careful watchfulness; it teaches industry and thrift; above all it teaches entire trust.
–Gertrude Jeckyll
If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly, our whole life would change.
–Buddha

How lucky you are to have such a green thumb, resulting in such beautiful flowers on the farm. I have one little lilac bush that finally bloomed last year – about six blooms. This year is better; it has about ten. I’m so happy to see them.

Oh, Lilacs! Those don’t grow down here. You are lucky!
The flowers here were all planted by the lady who used to live here. I’m still trying to learn what and where everything is!
