Let Nature Grow My Garden

I have not spent as much time as I used to doing my gardening or
yard work lately. My wife thinks that I have become lazy, but, as
a matter of fact, I have actually visited my yard and garden more
often; I have simply changed the philosophy of my gardening and
the way I look at nature.

I have tried not to eliminate the “weeds” in my garden or even on
lawn. I consider weeds are plants whose virtues have not been
revealed by most humans. Weeds are flowers too, once you get to
know them. ( A. Milne )



I no longer clean up the fallen leaves under the trees. I let the ever
falling conifers’ leaves, needles lay on the ground. They make soft
nature-woven rugs. They are ancient textures and good underfoot.
It is a unique pleasant feeling to walk on them.
