Governed Garden
Defending the Weak
Weeds are plants that grow in the wrong place. They are unwanted, because they are outside of order, harmony and beauty.
Queen Anne’s Lace and Thistles are beautiful along the bike path. Their blooms and stalks gracefully reach toward the sky and give off summer scents. But in my garden, they are dominant, intrusive and greedy. They take nourishment from the soil that is meant for other plants.
