THE JOYS OF GARDENING




Gardening is one of the most enjoyable and rewarding hobbies. It requires time, patience, and stamina to achieve the results you want, and a great deal of care needs to be thrown in as well.
Planning your garden is a on-going task for even the smallest of gardens. It's great fun to think about the possibilities and figure out how make them a reality.
Even if you have a professional build your garden for you, it still requires constant attention; you still need to look after your flowers, plants and trees, no matter who planted them. Stems and branches will still need clipping, and grass will still need cutting. Beds will need watering and pests exterminating. So, ultimately, the only thing a professional installation will save you is the time it takes to create your ideal garden. The ongoing work will still be the same.
Gardening is a great way to get exercise in small, regular doses. All of the digging, grabbing and cutting can soon burn calories, and many people prefer gardening to a regular trip to the gym because of the sense of achievement it provides.
There are many types of gardening, suitable for all ages. Senior citizens often take up herb and container gardening while leaving the bigger jobs, such as mowing, pruning and digging, to a part-time gardener.
Kids can have a lot of fun gardening. Watching a flower or plant grow from a seed they planted can be fascinating for children. Giving them their own small plot is a great way to introduce them to the delights of gardening. They will learn that a garden takes planning and care over a fairly long period to achieve results. Gardening is educational and a great way to spend quality time with your kids.
But despite all the sense of achievement it can bring, many people enjoy gardening for one reason more than any other: to get some time to themselves. They get time to think, and all they can hear is the trees swaying and the birds singing while they're left to their thoughts. If you need some time to yourself, while remaining active and working toward a goal, then gardening may be just the hobby for you.
