Leave It Alone


I have gorgeous impatiens taking over my bushes out front. Here is the view you would see if you drove by my house. The funny thing about these flowers is that I didn't plant them. Not this year anyway. They have reseeded themselves from previous years and came up volunteers. I did try to move some of them, but most I just left where they sprouted. They seem to like being right up under the bushes.

If you were to come knock on my front door and looked over the side of our stoop you would see them growing like mad behind the bushes. I consider it my Secret Garden.

Sometimes wonderful things can happen if we just leave it alone. The hard part is knowing when.
