I definitely relate here. We'll be sitting in the backyard sipping a cool drink and Brooke will comment how nice everything looks and I'll just think how next year the cardinal flower and prairie smoke should be better established and then it will REALLY look nice. But I guess that's part of gardening – learning how to appreciate the process and imperfection.
Yes for sure, and the quicker we can learn to do that - to appreciate the process and imperfection - the sooner we can just relax and enjoy ourselves. Though having a critical eye can be helpful too, so it’s a tricky balance!
I know these gardens ... nice to know they’re appreciated!
They certainly are!
