“The more contemplative gardener, seeing the garden as a whole, the design of it, and its nature as a still place of delight and refreshment, will wait and hope for the moment when it seems to achieve perfection. Awareness of when such moments are most likely helps to make them happen; they will not be entirely accidental but anticipated; everything will be planned to encourage them.” StillsWholeMomentsHelpingSeemsHappensSpiritReligionSpiritualityWaitingSeeingAchieveAwarenessDesignGardenPerfectionDelightGardeningGardenerContemplativeRefreshments Author:Susan Hill
“There is a continuity about the garden and an order of succession in the garden year which is deeply pleasing, and in one sense there are no breaks or divisions - seed time flows on to flowering time and harvest time; no sooner is one thing dying than another is coming to life.” LifeYearsTimeOrderBreakOne ThingDyingGardenFlowSeedsDivisionHarvestContinuitySuccessionFloweringHarvest Time Author:Susan Hill
