Not much more I can say except it reminds me of a 19th century poem by Thomas Edward Brown I learned many years ago at school:
A garden is a lovesome thing, God wot!
Rose plot,
Fringed pool,
Fern'd grot—
The veriest school
Of peace; and yet the fool
Contends that God is not—
Not God! in gardens! when the eve is cool?
Nay, but I have a sign;
'Tis very sure God walks in mine.
Also from You Tube:
Located just north of Victoria on Vancouver Island, this garden is no less than 22ha (55 acres). It started out as a limestone quarry but was turned into a garden as the quarry was abandoned.
