Garden Gifts
One of the things I love about our gardens is that many of the plants were gifts, trades or things we dug up along the roadside. I suppose I'm frugal by nature, and I'm certainly frugal about nature. We are always trying to give away plants that have overrun our small spaces, and the bounty always returns somehow.
Kevin's sister gave us a small chunk of a bleeding heart plant that grew beside their doorstep. I'd always admired their big bushy plant and was psyched to take some home after one trip out to visit. In later years, we found that their plant died. Maybe during an upcoming trip, we'll take a slip back to them ...
