Outdoor gardens
A little seed For me to sow . . . A little earth To make it grow . . . A
little hole, A little pat . . .
A little wish, And that is that.
A little sun, A little shower . . . A little while, And then—a flower!
[Maytime Magic]{.smallcaps} Mabel Watts
Planting an outdoor garden is truly fun! It’s a thrill to watch little
green heads come poking up from the places where you planted seeds!
All you need for an outdoor garden is a small patch of earth that gets
plenty of sunshine. You can buy seeds for many kinds of outdoor plants.
To plant them, just read the directions on the seed package.
The next few pages will show you some of the different kinds of outdoor
gardens you might like to have.

Wherever there’s a little bit of soil, there can be a garden. And a
garden brings beauty wherever it is.
