  • Yes, I enjoy gardening. I enjoy watering and planting new plants, as well as trimming. I don't love raking leaves or dealing with garden pests.

  • Mrs Didge is our resident gardener. She loves it. I usually only get called in to mow the grass and get rid of wasps' nests (of which there are many). She has an allergy to wasp and bee stings.

    I make my living gardening (residential grounds keeper) and on my days off gardening is pretty much all I do. Harvesting my potatoes is my favorite chore - only get to do it once a year but I always look forward to it (I get a couple hundred pounds a year). Not sure if I have a least favorite chore it's all good to me. Cheers!

    Not now but we did have a lovely garden, my Papa had brought coconut saplings from Andaman and Nicobar islands and planted 8 of them around our house, it is still there, huge trees and we distribute the coconuts to neighbors too. You might know coconut is important part of Indian cuisine.

  • No, I didn't know that. It must have been great to have the trees in your garden.

    Yes Didge, my Papa cared for them like his children...the trees stand a mute spectator to our growing up....it provides a lot of shade, I remember sitting under the tree and composing poems in summer and reading for my exams listening to the cuckoo cooing ....those were the days;))

  • Maybe you could try a window box. it wouldn't work for me -- I can kill cactus -- but lots of people love them.
