Since I can remember, I always had the drive for gardening. When I lived in a house with my parents when I was a teenager, I remember having a flower and garden area that would rock your world. I grew some of the freshest tomatoes and some of the most beautiful daisies that could exist. Then I lived in a small apartment in New-York, I had about no room at all for my possessions. Have something growing was impossible.

Everything changed when I moved to San Francisco. I went to a SF flowerandgarden show, and was blown away by what I saw. You see, San Francisco has a distinctive climate. Almost anything that can grow can grow there. For plants that need sunshine, it is bright enough, yet there is enough precipitation for plants that need a lot of moisture. 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 flowerandgarden shows are recognized all around the globe. There grow some of the best and brightest flowers, the freshest fruits and vegetables, and the most remarkable gourds that you have ever seen. All the garden and flower magazine profiles them every year, and each year is better than the last. When you go to the flower and garden show in San Francisco, it is almost impossible to not become obsessed with the idea of growing something on your own. The plants look so beautiful, after all that, how could anyone resist? For my part, I simply couldn't!

Of course, reading a flower and garden magazine, or going to a flower festival, 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 remember the way that my flowers looked when they were in full bloom, but I do not remember the amount of work that went into them. Having a few scattered tomatoes and flowers is one thing, but having a nice groomed garden is another. I had such unrealistic hope from the flowers and gardens show that disillusionment was inevitable. Nonetheless, I did have an impressive flower and Garden display after a few years. I now grow plants from all over the globe!
