Mom pruning

Some people like to relax by resting or watching TV. I'm not one of those people. Gardening is my way of relaxing.

For me, putting my mind to work on something different takes my mind off life's pressures. Your Grandmother's way to relax was by sewing, so I guess I picked up the habit of staying busy from her.

I do garden design as a profession but it all started from the joy I get from being in the yard.
