She loved the green and tended to it day and night. She would sit on her wooden chair and gaze over her gardens with a beautiful smile on her face, as the breeze gently touches her face with it's gentle blow, filling the air with the scent of roses, lilies and daffodils. It was the best sight ever, to watch my grandma smile. She didn't just take gardens as just for beauty or just for food, she saw it as art, as a connection to nature, as something that fixes the turmoil within us and give us inner peace, focus and also as a form of therapy. She believed that heaven is a garden, with so many beautiful flowers and soul soothing music, where the souls have comfort, solace and are given reassurance. I always thought she was crazy but from the sound of it, it would be an awesome experience. She thought us many things about gardens and how there is a timeless bond between Earth, Humanity and garden. This book is going to her tips and guide to a perfect garden as well as explore gardening from the ancient times. I have also write another book, a part two of this one to show you her secret to growing various different plants and flowers perfectly
