Heirloom Plants
A Gardener's Blessing
May the bunnies never nibble
on your young
and tender shoots,
May your transplants
settle in and put
down hardy roots,
May your weeds come out real easy and your
lawn be fungus free,
May you never put your
back out or
inhale a bumblebee,
May your roses never stab
you or
your hoses spring a leak,
And may
everyone come calling when
your garden's at its peak,
May you never grow too weary as you toil
for hours and hours,
And may
you never be too busy to stop
and smell the flowers!

Heirloom
seeds and plants are fairly new to me. I just
started
growing them a couple years ago. I find the produce
and
crops to be a bit smaller than the hybrid kind.
I also
find the vegetables taste so much better.
I think
it's important to continue the older
species
of plants. I have included a few links
here to help you with your heirloom garden plans.
