Since I can remember, I always had the drive for gardening. When I lived in a house with my parents during my teenage years, I used to have a garden and flower area that would rock your world. I grew some of the most beautiful daisies and some of the freshest tomatoes that you have ever seen. It's just that, living in a small New York City apartment, I had about no room at all for my belongings. Growing anything was impossible. Then I moved to San Francisco and everything changed. I was very surprised by what I saw when I went to a SF flower and garden show. You see, San Francisco has a distinctive environment. Almost everything that can grow can grow there. For plants that need sunshine, it is bright enough, and for plants that need a lot of moisture there is enough rain. 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 flower and garden shows are recognized over the globe. There grow some of the best and brightest flowers, the freshest fruits and vegetables, and the most striking gourds that the world have ever seen. Every flower and garden publication profiles them each year, and each year it is getting better and better. It's quite impossible not to be obsessed with the idea of growing something on your own when you go to the flower and garden show in San Francisco. The plants look so splendid, 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 neatly groomed garden is another. I had such unrealistic hope from the flowers and gardens show that disappointment was anticipated. Nonetheless, after a few years, I did have an impressive flower and garden display. I was growing plants from all around the globe! Who would have thought few years back. Not me that is for sure.
