The Possession Of A Quantity Of Plants,

I Plant Rosemary All Over The Garden, So Pleasant Is It To Know That At Every Few Steps One May Draw The Kindly Branchlets Through One's Hand, And Have The Enjoyment Of Their Incomparable Incense; And I Grow It Against Walls, So That The Sun May Draw Out Its Inexhaustible Sweetness To Greet Me As I Pass.

For The Best Building And Planting...the Architect And Gardener Must Have Some Knowledge Of Each Other's Business, And Each Must Regard With Feelings Of Kindly Reverence The Unknown Domains Of The Other's Higher Knowledge.

I Do Not Envy The Owners Of Very Large Gardens. The Garden Should Fit Its Owner Or His Or Her Tastes, Just As One's Clothes Do; It Should Be Neither Too Large Nor Too Small, But Just Comfortable.

A Garden Is A Grand Teacher... Above All It Teaches Entire Trust.

More Than Half A Century Has Passed, And Yet Each Spring, When I Wander Into The Primrose Wood, I See The Pale Yellow Blooms And Smell Their Sweetest Scent - For A Moment I Am Seven Years Old Again And Wandering In That Fragrant Wood.
