How much time do you spend admiring your plants?

I must say I do spend quite some time admiring my creations, whether it be in my greenhouse or on the veggie plot in the back, I can stare at them for quite some time in amazement.  :oops:  :oops:  :oops:

I probably spend more time staring at the chicks in amazement as they get bigger everyday!!!!!!!

But it is nice to think that all that lovely food was just seeds until you planted and nurtured them!!!!!

I love this time of year and can stand for timeless times(!) just gazing and sniffing at all my lovely perfumed plants in flower and showing off right now 8)  :wink:
I know less today than I did yesterday, and I knew nothing then!

I spend more time staring into space than admiring my handiwork ...  :roll:

Yep i love looking at them.

My biggest joy is the Basil followed by Peas and mange tout,then the beef tomatoe plants.
it meens so much more if grown from seed than buying young plants.

What makes us so attracted to it all?
