Trees are sanctuaries. Whoever knows how to speak to them, whoever knows how to listen to them, can learn the truth. They do not preach learning and precepts, they preach, undeterred by particulars, the ancient law of life. Hermann Hesse
We came from the Earth,
we return to the Earth,
and in between we Garden
Any Plant or Landscape queries, we’ll be here.
Flowers leave some of their fragrance
in the hand that bestows them.
-Chinese proverb
In Japanese tradition the bonsai represents the three virtues (shin-zen-bi)
Truth, Goodness and Beauty.
A Cactus gets its thorns by looking at another Cactus.
No two Gardens are the same.
No two Days are the same in one Garden.
Hugh Johnson
