Marie-Hélène loves going out on errands. For the past two weeks we’d visit various greenhouses (Saint Mary’s has an entire strip of them just outside the Perimeter) and we’d pick out a few plants at a time. If it were up to Marie-Hélène, our garden would be filled with red.
She takes after her Grandma Palud, who, in her dismay to see that the condo decided once again to plant yellow marigolds, asked the gardner if she wouldn’t consider red, and maybe a little white…
Just to oblige our girl, the planter near our door has a red begonia just for her. She pats it each time she goes by it and I tell her “gentle, gentle” each time.
