    Random Gardening definitions

    I was given a lovely little 'Gardener's pocket companion' book for Christmas and thought I'd share the occasional extract with you. This one made me smile


    Green Fingers: Something everyone else seems to have plenty of
    Perennial: This year, possibly; next year, unlikely
    Flower bed: Anywhere a dozen or more seeds might land
    Knee: A device for finding rocks in your garden
    Seed Catalogue: A work of fiction with fantasy photographs
    Spade: Highly efficient back-pain generator
    Weed: A good example of the 'Survival of the fittest' theory

      Well there's lots of fun facts and things in there but I thought I'd see what peeps thought and add a new one from time to time if it goes down well.

          Excellent - my garden's full of 'perennials'
          Life is too short for drama & petty things!
          So laugh insanely, love truly and forgive quickly!

            Weeds - plants which, if you give them an inch, they'll take your yard.
            Perennial. A plant which would have come back every year if it had survived.

                The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory....

                              I am black of eye and bright of hair
                              I stick in the ground yet I follow my bright lord as he races round the sky.
                              What am I?
