Indeed! Magicians and miracle workers! Anyone who could coax a potato out of the soil in Labrador West back then was a freaking regular botanist! The growing season was only a few minutes long for goodness sake...haha. I find gardening very calming...for a while...then I want to have it over with. In general though it's nice to watch a little bit of honest to goodness nature happening!

Snowden,
Remember when IOC had a train car with plants sent in every spring- you had to go to the depot and buy what you thought would grow ! My Mon would trundle over and pick up some wain flowers and plant them with optimism every Spring !

Later years, I recall Hugh Bright built a greenhouse and sold flowers to locals. His were much better than the ones coming in from St. Iles. Randy
