W: Why?

M: I was afraid it would take up too much time.(10)

M: Mrs. White, could you tell me when you became interested in gardening?

W: Well, I was always interested in wild flowers.In 1980,I read Margaret Fisher's book -Cartridge Garden Flowers,which is full of practical advice and personal opinions. But I was reading about plants that I didn't know.So I started to read as much as I could and get different writers' advice. I also used to visit Kew Gardens a lot. That was when I lived in Hallow, West London.I learned a lot from my visits.(13)(14)I also visited some beautiful towns,such as Dorset and Somerset. You must know that I'm often invited to give talks to biology students in colleges.

M: Yes,certainly.That's why I came here.Now what was your first garden like?

W: It was a very tiny piece of land, which came with my house in Hallow, west of London.(14)

M: Do you grow many plants yourself?

W: I don't grow many plants from seeds,but I have several friends. And we often give each other plants.(15) My garden is a place which often reminds me of so many people through the plants they have given me.
