Many of us like to do gardening. It is so nice to see the plants grow in front of our eyes and flowers blossoming and in some places fruits also bearing. Do you like gardening? Do you have one at home? How much time do you spend in it?

hello Buchi_bulla, yeah i love gardening and it gives me immense pleasure and satisfaction.i don't know why but i treat each and every plant as my child and take special care of it.usually i spent sometime with my plants in the evening though i don't find much time for them now a days.i have hired a person to look after them and my mom is there also.but i make it a point to visit them atleast once a day and its usually in the evening after i return from my work.i water them and see that all of them are in good condition and the gardener is taking proper care of my children.really very silly!!!!! lol... i have a separate garden for flowers and another one for fruits and vegetables which is in the backyard of our house.though flowers are not in full blossom now so its looking a bit dull but it looks gorgeous during winters and i don't feel like coming out of it.

From your response, I can make out how much you love gardening and how much you enjoy spending time with your plant children. It is a heart filling scene to see our plants grow, bring flowers and fruits. Enjoy lol.

hi Buchi_bulla, yes, i like gardening and i am having a garden at home. my dad love to spend his time in garden, looking after every plant like his child, watering them, suppoerting the weak ones with a stick, moulding the climbers over trees, and doing so many other things too. i developp my interest in gardening after watching my father doing all this. we are having seats , cemented ones there, so that if we want we can sit also there. we are having fruit trees also. i spend my qualitytime there because i love to be in and around greenery. i love to sit there and read book, i love to write , i love sketching too while sitting there.

That is really lovely to have seating arrangement in the garden. It is not only good for health as you get oxygen, but your mind will be fresh and your moods are very good. No tension and mind light. Enjoy my friend.

Garden - A beautiful garden.
I love it but unfortunately here in Metro Manila we can't have a good space for a garden. We have gardens in the province near our house. What I have here are just some flowering plants in pots which I do tend everyday.

I feel garden gives soothing feeling for us to see green leaves and different coloured flowers blossoming. It kindles the child like qualities in us. Early morning when you see a new flower, does it not make your heart jump with happiness? Well gardening gives self satisfaction of seeing our own plants planted by us, come up, flower and move slightly in the cool breeze.

Friend, gardening is like yoga, meditation, soothens your spirits. The plants are like your kids. When you water them, you feel you are feeding them. Is it not?

I do have a big garden here, but hubby built a big pond with koi fish in there. We are moving house soon and I want to have my own garden there, where I can plant strawberry's and other fruits

Are you not feeling sorry to leave this garden and pond? However you can have one more even better than this in the new place. Vav! Strawberry plants, I am imagining right now a plant full of strawberries.

I do like gardening. Now that I am living in a house again, we have a bit of land. My hubby had planted a few things before I moved over. I have planted quite a few things over the past few years. We even have a couple of blueberry bushes growing in pots in the front yard. I just love those fresh berries! I usually weed and such in the mornings before it gets too hot.

I have blue berry jam at home. It came from a hill station. I think fresh berries will be delicious.

I'm not much of a gardener but i do try! We have gardens all around the house, but it's hard to keep things growing strong living where i do because it's so hot & dry out here so if the plants aren't designed for the Australian Summer then they wont survive. At the moment it's also hard because we're on water restrictions so we can only use so much water - at the moment it's water restriction level 4 which means you can only water by hose or sprinklers 1 day a week - either Saturday or Sunday, depending on whether your house is odd or even numbered. I don't spend a lot of time out there but i do water them & try to keep things alive as best i can!

In spite of having water shortage, you are taking care of the garden. That shows how much you love the garden. But if you water once in a week, will the plants survive?
