of Mrs. Difford's floral bouquet

"Time does make a difference in any garden. At first, you wonder if anything will ever get large enough to count in the general picture. Then you wonder if there is any way to keep it from growing further. For years the little Cunninghamia, say, a favorite shrub, then all of a sudden it becomes a small tree, then after a while, you start thinking of it as a gnarled and marvelous fixture of the garden and can hardly think back to the time before you had it.
      The great trick, I am now sure, is to flow with the tide."
Henry Mitchell, please be my Valentine.
