All gardening is landscape painting,' said Alexander Pope.
One of the most important things I'm glad we did and am proud of is that we don't have any real grass on our property. It might not be realistic to ask people to pull out their grass, but we'll never have to think about it. We used Smart Grass, and I think it looks beautiful.
Nothing is more pleasant to the eye than green grass kept finely shorn.
Some lawns have all the cheer of old cemeteries.
For fountains, they are a Great Beauty and Refreshment, but Pools mar all, and make the Garden unwholesome, and full of Flies and Frogs.
A taste for the beautiful is most cultivated out of doors
We don't really believe in mowing the lawn; we do it only to avoid unnecessary engagement with the neighbors.
Laying out grounds may be considered a liberal art, in some sort like poetry and painting.
