All gardeners live in beautiful places because they make them so.

Who loves a garden still his Eden keeps;
Perennial pleasures plants, and wholesome harvests reaps.

The greenhouse effect is a more apt name than those who coined it imagined. The carbon dioxide and trace gases act like the panes of glass on a greenhouse—the analogy is accurate. But it's more than that. We have built a greenhouse, 'a human creation' where once there bloomed a sweet and wild garden.

The love of gardening is a seed that once sown never dies, but grows to the enduring happiness that the love of gardening gives.

The market is the best garden.

I would love this place to be my garden.

A garden must combine the poetic and the mysterious with a feeling of serenity and joy.

Hope as rich and green as the trees of an oasis.

Si hortum in bibliotheca habes, nihil deerit.
(If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need.)

The grass is always greener over the septic tank.

The gardener is the quintessential optimist: not only does he believe that the future will bear out the fruits of his efforts, he believes in the future.

Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.

The glory of gardening: hands in the dirt, head in the sun, heart with nature. To nurture a garden is to feed not just the body, but the soul.

the garden rewards me for my efforts. Red and yellow roses lift their faces to me, and the grass is green. Everything wants to live and to thrive. It’s a Jewish garden, with a little of this and a little of that. Everything comes together harmoniously.
