 Time
is something most of us think we don’t have enough of. We live
in a fast paced, non-stop culture where it is often difficult to fit in all
the things we would like to do, and gardening is no exception. Gardens and
gardeners are subjected to the unique trends and fashions - which come and
then go.
There are already many more plants now hardy enough to survive UK
winters that can provide gardeners with an exotic, tropical feel. These
plants are
becoming more widely available to the general public. Of course, the
fashion-conscious gardener’s desire to grow the ‘exotic’ is as strong as
ever.
Whatever else we do in our gardens, in essence it is the plants
that are its life-blood. Growing, tending and caring for plants is what gardening
is all about and when they are planned well and given TLC, whatever they are
and whatever trend your garden follows, they can reward you with an overwhelming
display of glory – without taking up all your spare time.
