doing flowers.......

ok, so........i made the rounds this morning in search of plants perfect for spots that i failed to fill with the plants i bought yesterday.....and last week....and the week before......few things thrill me more than plants that live long enough to bloom in the space in which i envisioned them.......gardening is an essential component of my persona....and so it was a shock to hear the comment/question at the hospice plant sale i didn't know you did flowers......this from someone i have known for years.....go figure......i have pondered the term doing flowers as i planted my purchases this afternoon......it sounds faintly like doing time, or doing drugs, or doing the dew.......certainly captures none of the pleasure one finds in digging in the dirt....and the possibility that i had failed to mention gardening to someone i felt i knew well......go figure........makes me wonder what we did talk about if it wasn't plants...............
