forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God..."
Gardening Quote of the Day
"When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant."( -- Paul Dickson, Author of The Official Rules at Home)
