flower garden

 Often times retirees engage in  gardening as a pastime, vegetable and or flower in pots or in the ground. Your garden may not be as elaborate as your friend's but I guarantee that the pleasure you derive from watching your plants grown will be the same. Though  I like gardening the soil and rain does not always cooperate so along the way I admire other people's. I recall once talking about my garden to a Londoner who had occasion to visit my home and he asked where my garden was, I had forgotten that his frame of reference as regards gardens was far grander than mine. But my knowledge of the annual Chelsea Garden show convinced him that though my garden fell short of his expectations I at least knew what gardens are like elsewhere.
