Re: Childhood plant memories


Thanks Anna - that really made sense to me. Not that garden hybrids aren't wonderful, but they're not where we should start.
I've forwarded your message to Common Ground in Britain, because I think they'd be interested in the childhood plant memories we're all coming out with. Their website's worth checking out - www. commonground.org.uk

My earliest memories are of playing in the square next to our house...

I am so glad I learned to make friends with plants in this way - made friends with the common, native varieties that lived in urban areas and cottage gardens and did not have to connect with the more intense and closed off energies of the hybrids and horticultural creations that surround me today...
