forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God..."
Gardening Quote of the Day
"...He is all pine and I am apple orchard.
My apple trees will never get across
And eat the cones under his pines, I tell him.
He only says, 'Good fences make good neighbors.'
(from Mending Wall, 1913)
"( -- Robert Frost, American writer, poet (born 3/26/1874))
