Gardening does something to people — it makes them patient, observant, generous with what they grow. It has a way of revealing who people really are.

Some water a plant in a shop they have no intention of buying, just because it looked thirsty.These 17 plant photos and stories about gardening, landscaping, wildflowers and the small joys hiding in every garden and windowsill prove that the people who grow things always have something worth sharing.
