Since I can remember, I always had the drive for gardening. When I lived in a house with my parents when I was a teenager, I remember having a garden and flower area that would rock your world. I grew some of the freshest tomatoes and some of the most beautiful daisies that could exist. Then I lived in a small apartment in New-York, I had almost no room at all for my belongings. Have something growing was not possible.
Everything changed when I moved to San Francisco. I was very surprised by what I saw when I went to a SF flowergarden show. You see, San Francisco has a unique climate. Practically anything that can grow can grow there. For plants that need sunshine, it is bright enough, yet there is enough precipitation for plants that need a lot of moisture. It is not too hot, and it is not too cold. It stays almost the same temperature all year. In short, it is the perfect temperate climate.
Because of that, San Francisco flowerandgarden shows are recognized over the world. There grow some of the best and brightest flowers, the freshest fruits and vegetables, and the most striking gourds that people have ever seen. All the garden and flower magazine profiles them each year, and each year it is getting better and better. When you go to the flower and garden show in San Francisco, it is almost impossible to not become obsessed with the idea of growing something on your own. The plants look so superb, after all that, how could you resist? I just simply couldn't!
Of course, going to a flower festival or reading a flower and garden magazine, is one thing. Starting a garden on your own is another. It seems so easy to do in the magazines, but it is not easy! But if you are passionate, you will forget how hard it was. I do not remember the amount of work that went into my flowers but I sure remember the way that they looked when they were in full bloom. Having a few scattered tomatoes and flowers is one thing, but having a nice groomed garden is another. I had such unrealistic hope from the flowers and gardens show that disillusionment was anticipated. Nonetheless, after a few years, I did have an impressive flower and Garden display. I was growing plants from all over the world!
