the garden of time       

the poetry of seasons

gardens take time
dedication and patience

gardens change
with the seasons, the years, the climate, the users

gardens evolve
plants mature, microclimates change, new needs arise

gardens are forever dynamic
places of discovery, timelessness and memories

sanctuaries, oases, dry lands or wild meadows,
gardens of bounty or simplicity

the gifts of time predate us; life comes from soil and water

when creating gardens, they need to be meaningful

it is important to choose nature's resources carefully, conserving water (rain water harvesting, grey water systems) and maintaining healthy soils

if we cannot anticipate what the future holds, we can strive to make wise decisions
