Quotes

Mien Ruys -
described her garden philosophy as    "A wild planting in a strong design"

"One cannot imitate nature in a garden"

 Henk Gerritsen -

"Plants that can't live without the use of chemical fertilizers or pesticides don't belong in my garden. Not in any garden by the way; you have a garden for the fun of it. A garden is art, or a hobby, if you like, but not a matter of life or death. Hence chemical fertilizers and pesticides, which are threatening the natural environment and consequently the health of all living creatures, ought to be forbidden for use in a garden."

Lemur

a new species of lemur is believed to have been found onthe island of Madagascar, it is the world's highest priority biodiversity hotspot.

It is really amazing that new species are still being discovered, in a time where we know so much yet the natural world can still surprise us.

Tree House Or is it a Stump House

I love this what an ingenous idea saves digging up and finding a way to despose of the giant tree stump.

                 This must have been one mighty tree!
