I could call myself a gardener, although in truth I feel like all I do is try and keep the jungle under control.

I have discovered over the last 18 years living on this country property of mine that when you live in the country you do not landscape. Instead I have had to learn to consider gardening on a broader scale. I believe the term would be terraforming, if we lived on a planet other than Earth. Most of this involves total neglect and seeing what grows!
