I always thought I would be a terribly impatient girl. If my seeds have not germinated after three days, I dig in the ground to look around, whether in the ground at least something does. I have not told anyone, but yes, am I doing. I'm going crazy at bus stops, in queues every kind and always take the first sip of tea before he is ready.
Unfortunately, there is a big part of gardening in waiting. At the moment - just as an example - I am waiting for it to be warmer, I sow the spinach, and planting the beans can. I'm waiting, I pull myself together and build me a cold frame, I'm waiting for the crocodile and the delivery of the ordered flower perennials. I'm waiting for the unfortunate lawn is green again and that the tulips will bloom again in the second year. I'm waiting for the Zeittpunkt, andem I can start full of the culture in the home and full of curiosity and longing for the heyday of rock copper bulb (which is the first bloom!). And these are just examples. Gardening is a single test of patience and waiting.
With so much patience we are gardeners real freaks. Here in the city, it all bad, because I do not take from me. Stress has become a status symbol. Those who stress has to do much, who has much to do, is needed and is important. Therefore, we are in a hurry. We are in such a hurry that we drink our Latte Macchiato on the road in nasty paper cups, while we wait impatiently for the bus, have to buy quickly, quickly homecoming must be rapid and this makes the need.
A week ago I had the honor of an interview for the great project girls can blog! to give . And then, suddenly, it was black and white: gardening has made a new man out of me. I am perhaps the most patient girl that the blogger Annie has ever met. Wow!
So do I even bother me more if I rummage tomorrow in the culture pots on the windowsill. I know now, I can sometimes be different. At least if it is not the slow germination of lettuce. And the crocus flower. And waiting for spring. And the perfect man and all. Yes, aside from all that, I can wait already. Klaro.
