The lesson I have thoroughly learnt, and wish to pass on to others,
is to know the enduring happiness that the love of a garden gives.

Amy, I actually sigh and smile when I see your messages arrive. Beautiful photos and interesting, inspiring posts.
Nancy, what a lovely thing to say! Thank you so much for your kind words. They mean a great deal to me. xoxo
Stunning photo! Is it a campanula? And one of my most favorite gardening quotes. LOVE! You always post such thought-provoking and beautiful posts. And thank you for continuing, in your quiet and lovely way, to inspire us onward. xoxo
Yes, indeed, dear Maude, this is a campanula! I planted it in our side garden a couple of years ago, and it’s happy as can be this year with all the rain we’re getting. I am grateful for your gentle companionship as we traverse life’s path. Thank you for the gift of your presence. xxoo
And yours is gorgeous! I’m just happy my bee balm is coming up. Now hoping the bees will show up . . .
I’ll bet the bees showed up for your bee balm! I’ve been away from my blog for some time. Sorry it has taken me just about forever to reply! As always, wishing you all the best! xxx
No worries. I’ve been doing the same. Have been horrible about keeping up with people’s blogs as well as my own :-).
