My grandmother is big time into gardening. Whenever I go to her place, I always find her in the garden. She is planting or digging something and she even talks to her plants. Says it helps them to grow faster! Looking at the way her garden is always in full blossom, it must be true! Some time back, we were renovating her house. It needed renovation badly. So I had told her to stay at my place for that period. She was reluctant but I insisted that she do so. Instead of worrying about how the renovation will work out, she was more worried about her garden. She said her garden will be spoiled forever thanks to the dirt and dust due to the renovation work. But I promised her that I won’t let anything happen to her garden. But things turned out the way they were meant to. By the end of the renovation, her garden had turned into a graveyard. I did not want her to see it and decided that I will become the gardener and make it as it was. I started with the grass and then turned to planting the flower plants. I did not want potted plants and decided to go for seeds. I bought flower seeds from the website outsidepride.com and soon her garden was in full blossom, the flowers dancing gaily in the wind. The twinkle in my grandmother’s eyes was compensation enough for the efforts I took.
