Everybody plants flowers around their homes. It's part of the scheme of things. 00:01:53.089 - 00:01:56.764
Anyway, it's fun planting seeds and watching flowers grow in a natural way. 00:01:56.969 - 00:02:00.882
Yes, I saw an exhibition of that natural growth this morning. 00:02:01.089 - 00:02:06.083
