Does blogging make you a better gardener?
I was being a bit reflective today - (it is my birthday and that tends to happen as I think of myself getting yet another year older). I live in a very remote area, and very few people other than the family actually ever see my garden. The grands love to run around and play and I have to bite my tongue when they pick pretty flowers to bring me. I do want them to grow up enjoying nature, and knowing where their veggies come from, and enjoy the taste of a sun warmed tomato straight from the bush. I don't want them to think the garden is un-touchable. I think it is working - my 4yr old grandson loves to garden. Hence the little friends that share my garden with me... With blogging though, I bring hundreds of people into my garden - an open garden every day.... I do think that has made me a better gardener. I think "oh my angel wing begonias are looking just as pretty as Bernie's" ...
