Your Gardening Secrets

Enjoy your plants

My gardening secret is to enjoy my plants, especially those given to me in memory of my parents. I have kept them alive through the years with careful watering and correct placement for sunlight. I am able to preserve a wonderful memory of country living by planting a flower

in a tree trunk. I took a rotten dogwood stump from my homeplace and filled it with soil. The tree trunk is upside down (root side up) in my flower garden, and I planted a pansy in it for joy and remembrance.
