When I Grow Up...I'd Like To Be Ralph Hoare


Sorry for the quality of the photo.  But you get the drift.

(Photo: PA/The Guardian, UK)

Ralph Hoare is 104 years young.  And still gardening.  He'll tell you a little about it here.  And here.

In the next couple months he'll be Twittering answers to your gardening questions at: #askralph

I don't know how to Tweet but if you have a satisfactory exchange with Ralph, please tell me about it!

Have a great weekend everybody!

  4. Un homme extraordinaire qui, il faut l'avouer, enlève un peu de la crainte au fait de vieillir !
    Et pour Magoa, bien vu ;)

  6. Chaque fois que je viens chez toi, j'ai envie de me balader dans un jardin, voir de jolis fleurs, et des cactus qui sont hélas pas très présent en Ile de France...! Bon dimanche
