Home & Garden - a woman's preserve
Recently I happened to be listening to the BBC's Woman's Hour radio programme. I found myself listening to this interesting broadcast mainly because they were doing a feature on gardening. It seems that in Victorian England women set the ball rolling in the area of domestic gardening. The men were too busyworking in the factories that were the Industrial Revolution."A garden is a place of solace, a place of joy, a place to be enjoyed." I'm not certain who said these words, but they summed up what gardening is all about.If you have a garden, a window box or one plant in your room - enjoy it! Remember gardens are organic - they are alive; gardens and plants live and breathe the air that humans breathe.
