Its harbwork sometimes keeping on top of things with work etc. But when it's in bloom it's great to sit out and enjoy. Wow your mums garden sounded really nice. Cant beat cut fresh flowers
My mother had a huge flower garden. She would go out every day and spend time pulling weeds, pruning the roses, watering, and anything else that needed to be done. It was the envy of all our neighbors.
We always had a live bouquet of flowers sitting on the kitchen table and in our living room all spring, summer, and fall.
I can almost smell the sweet aroma now.
I tried to raise flowers and a garden here, but our soil said NOPE, not gonna happen!
We need more top soil to grow anything other than trees.
Now, I'm too old and have too many aches and pains to work on such a project, but I do love looking at other's gardens.
