Four Seasons Of Flowers PDF Download

Excerpt from Round the Year in the Garden: A Descriptive Guide to the Flowers of the Four Seasons, and to the Work of Each Month in the Flower, Fruit and Kitchen Garden Round the Year in the Garden is an inexhaustible theme, to which I make no claim to have done full justice. Each month deserves a volume, the year a shelf of books. A perennial source of delight is found in watching the seasons round in a garden. One is taught to appreciate the joys of the present, to forget the disappointments of the past, and, with enthusiasm, to anticipate the promise of the future. Failures will be experienced, even the shadow of dismay may cloud the horizon, but the interest of the garden is so varied, so sustained, that the perplexities of one moment will be eclipsed by the pleasures of the next. Who feels bored in a garden must be a very dull person indeed - or a fair weather gardener, and for him there is no hope. It is not by planting in spring and gathering flowers in summer that the heart of the garden is won; rather is this aim achieved by an, acquaintance which has deepened to friendship, and through friendship ripened to love.
