A garden is a patch of soil or dirt that contains plants in various stages of development. Thus, tomato plants may be propped up by wooden stakes or supported by wire cages. Vining plants such as pole beans, cucumbers, and sugar peas are wrapped around taut twine that runs from one side of the garden to the other, or they cling to a piece of wire fence while they grow. Onions, potatoes, and carrots are temporarily hidden underground, but properly placed plant markers remind the sower where they are. Hot pepper bushes, herbs, and flowers provide much needed patches of color and fragrance, and everything grows accordingly and at its own pace, including the gardener.
