Gardeners Quotations

In American military cemeteries all over the world, seemingly endless rows of whitened grave markers stand largely unvisited and in silence. The gardeners tend the lawns, one section at a time. Even at the famous sites, tourism is inconstant.

Help us to be ever faithful gardeners of the spirit, who know that without darkness nothing comes to birth, and without light nothing flowers.

Gardeners may create order briefly out of chaos, but nature always gets the last word, and what it says is usually untidy by human standards. But I find all states of nature beautiful, and because I want to delight in my garden, not rule it, I just accept my yen to tame the chaos on one day and let the Japanese beetles run riot on the next.

Usually, children spend more time in the garden than anybody else. It is where they learn about the world, because they can be in it unsupervised, yet protected. Some gardeners will remember from their own earliest recollections that no one sees the garden as vividly, or cares about it as passionately, as the child who grows up in it.

We reinvented ourselves back in 1994, when we got money for a new herbarium that was open to the public. Most herbariums are impossible to get into. We have access for gardeners and everyone else. Other ones, you need credentials.

We also have some gardeners that grow their native Southeast Asia produce, which do very well in our climate. Some gardeners are very adventuresome and try a couple of new crops each year. Last year one gardener grew sesame seeds, which did extremely well.

Don't forget digital cameras. Gardeners love them and are more likely to document their garden's progress that way than with any other kind of record-keeping software.

Sales at best have been absolutely flat. My analysis is that we've become a nation of casual gardeners instead of gardening enthusiasts. People who are serious gardeners buy books.

It's my observation that gardeners and gardening for a very long time have had to take a back seat. Architects are very famous; they've got huge projects. What goes on in and around them has been relegated to a very minor role.

It was latent in him. He doesn't change character, ... It's not in his nature to be confrontational or create any tension. Good gardeners have to have a very quiet tenacity and insistence about them. This constancy, this determination, is in Justin, but it's not high octane. I like that, that people don't get it all in the beginning.

I have never understood why so many gardeners favour straight lines and narrow, regulated borders; perhaps they think wildness could work only in a larger space.
