A card from a dear friend inspired me to think awhile about all the quotes about gardens.
I was surprised to find some of my favorites were about weeds, like this one said by Eeyore, "Weeds are flowers too, once you get to know them.
I've also been fond of Luther Burbank's, "Flowers always make people better, happier, and more helpful; they are sunshine, food, and medicine for the soul."
Or these two that made me stop, and consider carefully what my garden says about me:
"Remember that children, marriages and flower gardens reflect the kind of care they get."
-H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
"Show me your garden, and I shall tell you what you are."
-Alfred Austin
