Sage Advice
My garden sage. |
~"Why should a man die whilst sage grows in his garden?"
~"He that would live for aye, Must eat sage in May"
(English Proverbs)
Working in my garden this past weekend has been such a delight. With the cool September air swirling in, I was able to wear my old sweatshirt and pull the wheelbarrow out of the shed. I mowed and trimmed and weeded and by day's end I built a fire under the almost full moon. It was a lovely way to spend a quiet Sunday.
My garden sage is perfect this year. Growing garden sage is easy. You must give it a try next spring. Hopefully with a little mulching, this plant will survive our harsh winter and surprise me in the spring. I hope your weekend was full of gardening as well.
Sage is said to bring tranquility and peace to your home...not a bad thing for a small plant!
Until tomorrow.
