GREEN THUMB SUNDAY - A GARDEN FOR YOU
I received this from Elsie...I know I've already emailed it to some of you but wanted to share it with you all.
THIS GARDEN'S FOR YOU ONLY
How To Plant Your Garden-
First, you Come to the garden alone, while the dew is still on the roses....
FOR THE GARDEN OF YOUR DAILY LIVING-
PLANT THREE ROWS OF PEAS:
1. Peace of mind 2. Peace of heart 3. Peace of soul
PLANT FOUR ROWS OF SQUASH:
1. Squash gossip 2. Squash indifference 3. Squash grumbling 4. Squash selfishness
PLANT FOUR ROWS OF LETTUCE:
1. Lettuce be faithful 2. Lettuce be kind 3. Lettuce be patient 4. Lettuce really love one another
NO GARDEN IS COMPLETE WITHOUT TURNIPS: !
1. Turnip for meetings 2. Turnip for service 3. Turnip to help one another
TO CONCLUDE OUR GARDEN WE MUST HAVE THYME:
1. Thyme for each other 2. Thyme for family 3. Thyme for friends
WATER FREELY WITH PATIENCE AND CULTIVATE WITH LOVE.

Oh that was lovely :)
Now you have to see my first attempt at green thumb sunday!
Your partly to blame for this new obsession with gardening :)
Ruth, I just love that so much!!! So true, indeed!
Every time I see pictures of your garden, I LONG for a beautiful English garden. I wanted one for years. I would love to have plants everywhere, along with a lamp, bench, and a fountain. Every time I mention it, Mark turns green!!! I want a brick path, and he thinks I am already too committed to too many things. I do have a lot to do, but my gardens that I have currently really are low maintenance. How I wish I could "borrow" you for about a month to help me figure this out!!!!
Thank you for sharing your pictures. As always, they are so beautiful!
Lovely garden! Good thoughts,thanks!
Your garden is beautiful!
Love the little poem,~ This Garden's for you only...
Have a great weekend!

Oh I loved this! How lovely if everyone had a garden like this!
your garden looks magical, as always, Ruth. I hope I get to explore it one day. This is a beautiful post and I'm going to print it out and keep it!! {{HUGS}}
Hi Ruth,
I think one thing might be missing, It dosn't say anything about slugs in the lettuce bit.
Cheers Mark
Hi Ruth, love your garden for you
a lovely verse , Mark beat to it i was going to say no slugs in the lettuce,,,,,,
talking of TURNIPS... did you know I'm 50% turnip.. yes I have lots of turnip blood in me... BOTH my grandparents on my Mum's side spoke with Turnip accents ... you know that Wurzel Gummidge cantry farrmerrgh's voice... yes... which mean's I'm Turnip right down to the marrow
Nice sentiment, lovely photos. Happy GTS!

Your garden is lovely as always. Sara from farmingfriends
