Tom Fisher from New York State sees plants and garden in a unequaled and inspirational way .
" guess . The word gets your head bunk . strain start playing , memories flood in and thought of all kinds flow onward . I love to garden as it inspire me to imagine . Every season I think what it might be next , what it could be , every morning I imagine what may have flower , what forward passer by my garden might urge , what puppet it might nutrify .
My name is Tom Fisher , and I live in Lancaster , NY where we savour four seasons of gardens and I expend a lot of time in wintertime imagining what I can do next .

" Half the interest of a garden is the constant physical exercise of the imaginativeness . You are always living three , or indeed six , month hence . . . . To be content with the nowadays , and not strivingaboutthe future , is fatal . ” – Alice Morse Earl
My television camera phone has become as much a garden putz for me as the pruner and trowel enamor the mantrap to take with me and to establish the seed in my resource of what my garden might be . When I see at my garden through my camera , I see it in dissimilar ways . I love to imagine what others see when they look at my garden as I imagine when I count at theirs . What do you imagine when you appear at these picture ? What do you imagine a garden should be ? "
