Gardening as a Hobby

I grew up watching my mother garden plants along with vegetables back home in the Bahamas. Where I grew up. I saw how she care for her plants and make them blossom and grow to perfection. My mother always took pride in her garden. Eventually I grew up love gardening as well. Even though I had variety of hobbies growing up as a kid. I was a pretty active kid. I never like to sit around doing nothing. I was a kid that never like to experience boredom.

Gardening is one of my many hobbies. I enjoyed gardening because I got to spend quality time with my mother. Gardening also helps to keep me fit, strong and healthy for working away in my mother's garden results in a beneficial kind of exercise that is good for both mind and body. I inherited the love for gardening from my mother and with her help and interest; I have prepared my own small garden in front of our porch back home in the Bahamas. I am proud of it because it was result of my own hard labor. Gardening is not difficult. It involves preparing soil, planting vegetables, flowers, and it's good form of exercise. I think, it is the best of all hobbies which one can follow with a lot of amusement and benefit to health. The sweet fragrant of flowers of different hues sweeten as my mind. Some evening's i'll just sit on the house porch to view my mother's garden. The beauty of nature always eased my mind and I felt a sense of peace and serenity.

I've help my mom grew several varieties of plants including the jasmines, and gladioli in her garden around the house. Every day after church it was my habit to check the garden and look after the plants. The garden has to be kept under a strict check, mowed punctually as the grass grows at a speedy rate during the rainy season, and cleaned at least twice a week. It also makes me feel close to nature in a way. When the plants near blossom, I feel A thrill of joy in my mind and take pride in my creative labor. Flowers also makes beautiful bouquets and can also make a wonderful gift for birthdays and anniversaries. Example: A gift of flowers can brighten any persons day. Flowers just has a way of making people feel at peace and happy. I also even help include vegetables into my mother's garden for it had saved us the purchase of vegetables from the local market and we also sold them to other people at respectable sum of money. It's possible to grow the vegetables that are consumed daily and do not take up much space. It is a great feeling to have helped my mother's garden be admired and appreciated by other people in the neighborhood and it makes me feel like I have accomplished a great goal.
