Some gardens are allowed to grow weeds, some 
are used only as a space in which to grow flowers 
and shrubbery, some are show places where the 
owner’s wealth is exhibited, but a real garden is 
a place in which to live—an outdoor living room 
—a beauty spot secluded from the public view 
and from the cares of household or business.
