I enjoy the glimmer in people s eyes when you let slip that you are a gardening nut. You have that instant bond with them and can go totally off subject as you delve into each other s gardening worlds. I just had this experience at a business meeting. I looked down and noticed my nails were chipped and ragged. I joked that I couldn t resist digging in the cold dirt last night to get some pots ready. I looked up and this businessperson was grinning. She was one of us too.
I came to the joy of gardening late. I am an urban dweller who had too many rental plots. When I bought my own home my sister and father - the experts - took it upon themselves to get me started with lots of divided plants and seedlings they started. I ve been doing my own thing for the five years I ve been in my home now.
My home is in the city. A small hillside in the front receives full sun. A large hillside in the backyard is
full to partial shade. I am developing this hillside from
it s coverage of ivy. I am also trying to create something in the small sliver between my house and my very close neighbor.
I live in: United States
My zone is: z7
