Winding up gardens, starting afresh. Initially, this used to bother me a lot, but now I have gained confidence. Place me anywhere, just give me space to grow plants and within a few months, I will grow my happiness again!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">After I saw waterlilies in pictures posted in international water lily groups, my mind just blew off. I knew I had to procure those plants, no matter what. I started nagging my husband.
