Gardening and favourite plants
Hi Mona and Lisa
Hope you’re both doing great. It sounds like spring may not be too far off as our groundhog did not see his shadow this year in Canada and so the experts say spring will arrive early.
This is a gardening question for Mona.
I don’t consider myself a gardener but am no stranger to it. My mother was an avid gardener and enjoyed planting all kinds plants over the years. I remember a big corn patch when we lived in south eastern Washington State, and then later growing up
she use to drag me all over the city to the different gardening nurseries to pickup supplies very early on weekends, so much for my weekend slumber, and when I first got my new mustang use to complain about having to throw in bags of top soil and peat moss and large potted plants in my spotless new trunk and back seats, but I did it anyway. There are huge shrubs and even trees I helped her plant decades ago thriving at the old house. Later my wife also turned out to be an avid gardener and sectioned off a part of our back yard into her own garden and created some pretty impressive flower beds as well as vegetable garden. Guess where we get all our potatoes, cilantro, cucumbers, and green onions from? When we had our dog Max, while we trained him not to jump into her garden, when a ball accidentally went there, Max has on occasion forgotten the rules and jumped right in, if you can envision an old Godzilla flick as he stomps around in a village crushing everything in sight. LOL. I should have filmed it when my wife would jump into the garden after Max to pull him out, was hilarious!So to my question, do you have any favourite types of flowers or plants you like to grow? What were some of the plants or gardening projects you are especially proud of or turned out well that gave you much pleasure?
Really enjoyed your DIY gardening video as well as the many short video clips into your gardening from the past.
Thanks
Jung
