The great thing about the art of gardening, is that it's not exclusive of the highly talented. You may not be able to paint in oils or write a best seller but you can make a beautiful garden, because that's something we can all do. You may be put off by thought of all the work a garden entails. A properly planted garden will take half the work demanded by a weed infested mess. There is no such thing as the perfect garden in the sence of one in which you can grow successfully any plant anywhere, we all have to live with choosing from a range of plants that is determined by the climate and soil type of our gardens.
