I have a couple raised beds, a small vineyard, a variety of berries and fruit trees. That's surrounded by edible evergreens high in vitamin C. The dandelions are in the yard part a long with some plantains. Since the dandelions are sparse since spring, I eat a lot of young tender grape leaves until the drought ends. I buy some too, until my garden starts producing.

I could have serious feelings for a guy with an impressive rose garden. :love:

(Or any other kind of flowers. I've tried to grow them myself but, uh, let's just say my thumbs are the wrong color.) :cry:

well I thought, if Jesus has a garden, why cant I, 5 things help me , 1st ask Jesus to help you, 2nd if there out side water them every day in the morning's, 3rd is to spray water on them every day, miracle grow, and 4th talk to them, they breath in what we breath out, and number 5 is prune them any thing that dead, must clip them, and if you see the roots coming out from the bottom put them in a bigger pot, these things work for me, I hope they will work for you, so you can enjoy Gods Beautiful creations,
 
I think gardening is a great thing as it displays God's creation and design. We can make analogies too. A little weed is easily dealt with, but if we wait too long, it spreads and can even be impossible to remove without damaging our intended crop. And flowers have an intrinsic beauty that is just a shadow of God's glory - nobody has to tell us they are beautiful - we just recognize that beauty because it is.

I just went back to read again and think there was confusion with the post I responded to. That wasn't mine.
Those were Shittim's flowers.
They look great. He's got a green thumb.

I have flowers...... they are called dandelions and I let them mature and go to seed before i mow and spread them, same way with the clover, and a couple patches of purple violets that I allow to prosper. The morning glories pretty much take care of themselves.

The garden this year is doing okayish.
The shallots produced but it was minimal. Garlic was a big fat zero. Wish it was a lot more. The Golden husky tomatoes were a fair success....more are on their way.
The herbs are always successful up to a point. The biggest problem herb is the sage which I use for breakfast sausage and various things during Thanksgiving.

It looks like my flat leafed parsley is at its end as well as the thyme. Will have to replant next year. Oregano? You literally cannot kill the stuff. I've tried to harvest it into dying to no avail. Basil (3 types) seems to thrive easily. Chives are started and I'm hoping for a better showing next year. Lemon balm is alive....two little sprouts. Whatever eh?

I'm not much of a gardener....but I am making an effort. Lots of bugs and weeds and not a lot of produce for my efforts.

But I'm not stopping....

I think It would depend on the guys Interest.Most people want to grow something that gives back something that pleases the fleshly appetite but after being reborn I have an Interest not only In vegetable and fruit life but all life Is wondrous seeing the stages It’s life goes through while knowing that God commanded It to grow this way at this time.
