The difficult that makes gardening easy

Patience. Taking the long view. Starting small and appreciating the changes that happen naturally.

Start with perennials in four inch pots instead of gallons. You'll save money and, if planted in spring, they'll be almost as big in less than a month.


Spend time improving your soil before you plant vegetables. Maybe a few months, maybe even a year. Nothing else will give you more success than great soil.
