Keep tinkering away in the small courtyard garden, and it will surely become more and more beautiful.
Life is all about tinkering. A tree stump stool? A tea seat? A flower vessel? Anything goes.
In the eyes of horticultural professionals, my small courtyard may look a bit cluttered, and I am not particularly satisfied with it either. It is still far from what I envisioned, but this is my first time working on it after all. To get such results really gives me a sense of accomplishment. I believe that next year, as I gain experience and understanding, my small courtyard will become more and more beautiful.
After looking at it for a long time, I cannot help feeling envious. In fact, when it comes to garden making, the Chinese are also the originators. The classical gardens of Suzhou make so many people gasp in admiration. Even if you have never seen them, the descriptions of gardens in "Dream of the Red Chamber" will give interested friends a general idea.
But although it is said to be without visible traces, it also took generations of painstaking construction. It still left quite a lot of artificial touches. Just those rare flowers and strange rocks, rockeries and bonsai, cost no one knows how much silver.
Yesterday I came home from work, and Feimao was using a lawn mower bought online to trim the lawn.
This life is not only sweet, but also fragrant!
The fragrance of flowers, the scent of green grass, and the earth is fragrant too.
The dogs have been causing mischief again. They dug a hole at the base of Cassis, two branches and more than a dozen flowers are gone, and all the newly sprouted fern shoots were broken off too. When asked, they all look innocent. Looking at the situation, Xiao Erhei is the most likely suspect. The roses are: Pat, Lady Charlotte, Sweet Dream and Falstaff.
With this kind of hard work and money invested, people like us cannot learn to do it, whether in terms of financial resources, energy, or even time. We can only think about it in our hearts.
Hobby gardening is really not about money. Whether you have more money or less, you can adapt to local conditions and enjoy the process. It is very pure.
