Well now, my wife won't touch a plant, but loves the garden and is a willing 
weeder and mulcher.  Since we have 3 acres, I decided to give her a plot and 
some plants and see what happens.........Voila!....she is in love with her 
garden....now every time I'm off to acquire some plants , she'll give me an 
order for one or two that she's seen in someone elses garden and likes.  On 
hindsight, it seems to me that's how we "cultivate" ( no pun intended ) the 
little ones.  And she isn't much for plant names....everything is a 
bouganvilla or a pink thing, green thing, etc
Of course I do the mowing and other grounds stuff.   Partnerships are just 
interesting and wonderful...as a rule.
