I do this consciously in my Quebec garden, Glen Villa, and look for ways to encourage others to incorporate personal stories in their gardens. It adds so much.pat@siteandinsight.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04362106194878068781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488599.post-25157031740780801842013-02-10T15:06:33.437-05:002013-02-10T15:06:33.437-05:00What lovely thoughts, Carol.

It can only enrich our gardens by planting them with such thoughts in mind. Teachers are too often underappreciated, when they have such a great impact on our lives, and a great teacher can make such a difference. You're lucky to have had one. BTW, is your teacher related to the musician?Mr. McGregor's Daughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05911409327006498766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488599.post-15381040366689001552013-02-10T13:20:50.871-05:002013-02-10T13:20:50.871-05:00It is interesting how everything we learn and expe...It is interesting how everything we learn and experience in life has a broader meaning that we sometimes don't figure out until we are older. A good friend just recommended a book to me "The Language of Flowers" which is now on my reading list. You may enjoy it as well if you have not read it yet.Lee@A Guide to Northeastern Gardeninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15208392136967108192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488599.post-83478723909490460472013-02-10T11:47:22.984-05:002013-02-10T11:47:22.984-05:00It is interesting how our gardening follows our th...It is interesting how our gardening follows our thoughts through anything we read with flowers or gardens mentioned.
