I am not the only one

My husband use to love it but since his legs have been giving him so much trouble he can't really do that much anymore.. I do so miss the days that we could do a lot more of the plantng and gardening.. Maybe one day we will again..

yup, my mom loves to plant especially those fruit bearning trees, we have a coconut, mango and lanzones in our backyard...we also have tomatoes, potato and spinach..its godd to eat fresh veggies and fruit especially if its you who planted it..

LOL! My husband thinks it's a waste of time and money - he says it's just as easy to go to the store and buy the vegetables I have planted - I get great satisfaction in knowing that I grew it with my own two hands - we will never agree on this one!

Same here. We have got our small garden out and I see it growing and starting to get some blooms on the tomato plants every day. I can hardly wait to get some fresh tomatoes and green onions, and leaf lettuce. We only live on a 1/4 acre so we do not have much room because our home and garage and swimming pool and trees and landscaping takes up alot of our room. I love our hard work around here. We are getting ready to put a roof on our back deck and do alot of landscaping in my back yard this summer. I want to buy a cedar gazebo soon too. We just finished some of our pool deck recently also.

I wish that I loved gardening, I love pretty plants, trees and flowers but do you know what spoils my wanting to enjoy it and be a gardener? Those rotten horrible bugs. I cannot cope with them at all, I am alright until I see one and I just cannot do anymore.

I am OK with woodlouses, and beetles as long as they are small and in groups of one. But bugs that I do not recognize or spiders and I am off up the path into the house and that is it. But I am going to give it a good go when I have had my garden done in June.

I couldn't grow anything if it was to save my life, my sister on the other hand has a green thumb. She once gave me some outdoor plants{after i murdered all the indoor ones she gave me} and they died to.Everytime i go to her house i'm a little envious of how lovely her yard looks, it's beautiful.
Forgive my ignorance, but what are Cukes?

Looking good!

I think my husband enjoys gardening too and he has some mint he planted, as well as some tree seedlings that he got from the Arbor Day Foundation.

He knows I'm enjoying myself with all my things in containers and sees how excited I get when I see new sprouts, or flowers or whatever, but he pretty much lets me do my thing. He's always right there when I need help moving things or something, though.

I know if we were able to have a 'real' garden he would definitely be working it with me.

My husband always tells me what a good job I do on the flower beds. I used to admire my grandmothers garden. My grandmother had the most amazing garden, she grew everything that was able to grow in her area. She was also an amazing cook who really made the best out of her fresh grown vegetables. She used to cook her fresh grown green beans in a way that was out of this world, and rhubarb pie that was amazing. I doubt I will ever again taste such a wonderful rhubarb pie now the my grandmother is gone. I will certainly never forget her wonderful garden though.

No, I am the only one.. Yeah I will point something out to someone and they will say, "yeah, that looks good" but they do not enjoy it like I do...

Hey Grandpa Bob. Glad that you add something new to your garden. That means that I have more photos to enjoy in the future. My family doesn't have a garden. But my father planted some flowers in the balcony. They are quite beautiful. My father is quite satisfied with that. When it's new year, he will take the flowers into the living room to decorate it. Really nice.
