“ As Paradise (though of God’s own Planting) was 
no longer Paradise than the Man was put into it, to 
dress it and to keep it, so nor will our Gardens . . 
. . remain long in their perfection unless they are 
also continually cultivated.” 
— John Evelyn. 
“ A garden must be looked unto and dressed, as 
the body.” 
— George Herbert .
