Quote
The satisfaction of a garden does not depend on the area, nor, happily, on the cost or rarity of the plants. It depends on the temper of the person. One must first seek to love plants and nature, and then to cultivate the happy peace of mind that is satisfied with little.
In the vast majority of cases a person will be happier if he or she has no rigid and arbitrary notions, for gardens are moodish, particularly with the novice. If plants grow and thrive, he or she should be happy.
