Now I'm in my home, but there's no real place to garden, so I'm back to pots! Getting some fine herbs this summer: chives, thyme, Italian parsley and even two types of peppers.<br /><br />I found your blog via SacBee, and glad I did. Your efforts and photos are inspiring, affirming that gardens can bloom in the most unlikely places.Taradharmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17665801586196931603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7257345.post-79518493502817896972012-06-25T19:11:34.242-07:002012-06-25T19:11:34.242-07:00Since I was 5 years old, I've always "HAD...Since I was 5 years old, I've always "HAD" to garden. But during my divorce, I decided I was going to stop living in the future and live as much in the present as I could. So, even knowing I was going to have to move out of my house, I planted my first perennial garden and painted my bedroom the color I wanted. <br /><br />Now I'm a retired volunteer at National Wildlife Refuges and I miss gardening. But I sometimes get to work in a pollinator garden, start trees or plant them and care for them. <br /><br />Gardening is a healing activity and people who garden are most likely to have a high quality of life. And I've never had a landlord who cared if I pruned his trees or not. <br /><br />So congrats on your garden and may it give you much pleasure.Marilyn Kircushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15014565704792020948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7257345.post-40467035301178367182012-06-25T12:09:14.607-07:002012-06-25T12:09:14.607-07:00What Katie said, Angela.

You said it so eloquently. (I hope I am in my forever home now, but there are no guarantees. A day at a time, right?) I figure that my job on this planet is to leave places better than I found them. So far so good.<br /><br />I am so glad to see you back gardening - your absence has been sorely missed.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01031713230200784274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7257345.post-30972706075538174702012-06-24T11:11:40.664-07:002012-06-24T11:11:40.664-07:00Hey, Sue!

But in the last couple weeks I have been taking back many garden beds from Mother Nature's care and can see a light at the end of the tunnel. Yes, it feels really good.suejennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05974303080060876891noreply@blogger.com
