Diversity

To embrace diversity is to embrace God.
I saw this statement on a road sign and thought about it.


This statement may have many meanings.
Accept all, respect all and appreciate all, as diversity means variety, in people and in plants.
I'd say that definition includes the most popular plant found here: WEEDS.


Diversity, to a gardener, means including many different plants: from the germination of seeds to planting bulbs, shrubs, trees, annuals, perennials, new varieties and heirloom.

Garden diversity can also be applied by incorporating water, art, companion plantings and animals, along with all the plants into the design of the garden.

This is Earth Week.

Here is to a more diverse Earth and Gardens
and Peace among us.
