hey homegirl! I think gardening is pretty cool, but the only thing I can manage without killing is cactus.

You have a nice garden. It looks so relaxing!
I'd take up gardening, but I'd probably kill everything.

I had a garden once. I diligently pulled out all the weeds for a while, watered it, did everything, until it became just a huge chore and sucked all the free time out of my evenings and weekends. The garden ran wild and all the "weeds" turned into flowers.
I'm growing tomatoes this year. Every time I eat one I'm going to think of ChinaLama.

your garden is beautiful. reminds me of the secret garden. so green.
we have a japanese persimmon tree, fuji apple tree, japanese pear tree, japanese cucumbers, tomatos and this long stringly-looking vegetable that my grandma planted. it's crunchy.
did you know, that if squirrels try to steal your fruit, you should put a little bit of diluted wolf urine powder solution around your trees or something like that? it's an animal repellent. i remember when we were getting our house remodeled, that's what our contractor told us. he was taiwanese. mr. pai.

My gardening consists of trimming bushes, pruning tree branches, and pulling weeds. I don't grow anything anymore. I just keep whatever the previous owner of my house grew in my yard alive. Oh and picking up my dogs' shit.

hehe... i agree with ppl...
its a beautiful garden...
but this isnt really mine tho...
just a friends garden in which i'm helping out in...
when weeding, doing a lot of digging
and other stuff...
such as laying bricks...
in order to make a path
and so forth...
its actually a lot more physical work...
than i ever imagined...
which has made me gain...
a new respect for
gardeners, landscape workers...

You need to get one of those rolling carts on wheels.
I don't think your squatting position is good on the knees.

Your garden is lovely.
All I have managed are a few vegetables on my veranda.
Maybe this year I can expand, if its not too late in the season.
