The living room was transformed into a miniature jungle. Lush green leaves cascaded from every surface, and the air held a rich, earthy fragrance. For years, gardening had been Mrs. Peterson’s solace. Her own haven. Now, her daughter, Sarah, who had once been more interested in video games, was completely engrossed in the world of plants.

The plants thrived, yes, but even more impressively, so did the connection.
