I Talk to Plants


I talk to plants. Does this make me crazy? Perhaps, but here are some really good reasons why I speak to my plant children.
  1. They're good listeners. You can tell them all about your cares and woes.
  2. They don't complain about the hair cuts you give them. You accidentally slightly over cut a rose branch? That's ok, it'll grow back! Well, unless you really over cut, then we have a problem.
  3. Plants will not judge your singing, so go ahead and perform your favorite hymn for them!
  4. Oh those weeds you haven't gotten to yet? Well, your garden won't even notice. The plants are just so pleased to see you that they don't even care about the weeds. However, be sure to get to them eventually, a garden's patience only lasts for so long.
  5. The joyous reception one gets from the garden is so nice that one can't help but to be happy. Nothing better than getting a bunch of smiling flowers staring and listening to you!
The Lord gave us gardens to lift our spirits and bring happiness in our lives. Don't forget to talk to your plants, they love hearing from you!

Patriotically Pomp Flowers

 
 
Are you looking for dazzling and stunning ways to show tribute to our Nation? Try using flowers! Freedom and patriotism can be symbolized with petunias and other flowers!
 
 

 
Or place a flag in a pot to add some extra boom and pop to your porch!

The Unpretentious Flower

K.E.G's daisy.
 
"The rose has but a summer reign,
The daisy never dies"
- James Montgomery, The Daisy
 
Meet the unpretentious flower of a garden, the Daisy. When one glances at its sweet petals, one will view a bubbly, outgoing, and welcoming bloom. If you ran out of sugar and needed to use a neighbors' sugar, this is the flower you would ask.
 
The flower is seen as a symbol of childhood innocence, or represents friendship, simplicity, purity, and modesty in the Victorian era. The friendly plant is a favorite of K.E.G's and it thrives in Mother Judith's gardens. Before K.E.G and I were born, these were the first successful seed starts for Mother Judith ever. These plants have relocated to three different houses happily. They propagate quickly once started.
 
K.E.G says daisies give you exercise and bring joy. The perfect flower.
