When we had little money it was maybe a garden mum, then it was rose bushes or a shrub. This year it was 2 Japanese Honeysuckles and my 14 yr old son helped me plant them to help cover the privacy fence this afternoon. We are also adding a low deck at the back of the house to give us more outdoor sitting space to enjoy all this and have been all working on it as a family which has been great. Working outside with friends and family, now that's a great Mother's Day. It has been our tradition that Mother’s Day gifts for me consist of something to plant.

I wouldn't mind teaching people to garden, if I knew how to offer such a service. It seems like a great thing to do. How wonderful of you to do that for her and her son.
