Gardening in and of itself is an art form. And the art of fine
gardening is just that, an art.

Fine gardening may mean many things to many people, but to me fine

steps into this land of fine gardening, a place of peace and calm
where a person can meditate on the finer things in life.

Therefore, a water feature, ideally one that will make a continuously
soothing gurgle, with a small stepping-type of waterfall-cum-pond,
placed on lovely slabs of flat rock with a hint of moss growing on it.
A nice water lily or lotus to give off a contrasting color, and
perhaps a fish or two. A few ferns and leafy rain-forest type plants
placed around the pond, and I'm finished with this stage of my fine
gardening.

Ideally I would love a big tree to stand in a corner of the garden,
with a luscious velvety dark brown trunk that I can just about span
with my arms, overflowing with vibrant green leaves spilling onto
the ground in heedless abandon. Since I might not always get what I

I love the idea of a Zen garden, but prefer colors and lots of plants, so I would incorporate this feature into my fine gardening efforts by placing a path, naturally made out of rough hewn stone, zigzagging in a leisurely course through the garden. And to finish it all off I'd have a little alcove, unseen from afar, that afforded the curious visitor a wide-angled view of the whole garden, with a sun shade, and a low-lying bench with a few plump cushions strewn carelessly about, and all of it surrounded by a profusion of welcoming flowers. In the distance I would set about placing a few boulders, pleasing in stature and color to the eye, surrounded perhaps by a few flowers. And amidst all this fine splendor I would walk amongst my heartfelt efforts of fine gardening and sigh in satisfaction and peace. For what more is there to gardening, than the art of fine gardening.
