When you read the special GreenPrints Collection [Gardening Romance: Stories of love, hope & laughter]( today, you get tender and engaging stories that are guaranteed to touch your heart! When I first read all these stunning stories, I gravitated to the “Lost and Found” story about a woman who loses her wedding ring in the garden. [Romance Collection]( The story reminded me of my mother Betty’s ring-disappearance episode. And like Judy Pellettieri, author of “Lost and Found,” my mother never found her lost ring—it wasn’t her wedding ring, but Mom cherished that ring. In the mid 1970s, Mom inherited an antique cameo ring from two elderly maiden aunts who were suddenly killed in an auto accident. With no children, Aunt Olga and Aunt Julia had an estate that conveyed to my mother and her three brothers—and the cameo ring soon became my mother’s prized possession. It was a remarkable ring with incredible detail, and my mother liked to flash it around when she wore it—long before Rihanna and Sarah Jessica Parker made cameo jewelry fashionable! One day, after spending time in the yard and garden, the ring was gone—my mother was distraught, and the entire family spent hours and hours hunting around the yard for the ring. We never found that ring—and my mother was heart-broken. She never had much jewelry, so that gorgeous ring mattered so much to her … especially with the family connection. Sometimes, though, a solution presents itself from unexpected sources. My sister Mary was working in jewelry retail at the time, and she arranged to replace the ring with an almost-exact duplicate. So, Mom got a “family” cameo ring replacement, and she was happy. For Judy Pellettieri, she too had a happy outcome—her husband resolved her wedding-ring disappearance with a very unique solution! You have to read the story to see how it ends. And here’s another story from the GreenPrints Collection [Gardening Romance: Stories of love, hope & laughter]( entitled “Memories and Butterflies”—you’ll be touched by this story when you get to the end! [Memories and Butterflies]( A gardener’s comfort. By Chuck Jutz [image] Some of my earliest memories, from the 1950s, are of my mother’s huge garden, necessitated by the need to feed 11 children on a small farm in southern Minnesota. On the west side, the garden was edged by a row of hollyhocks that seemed to grow 10 feet tall. Grapevines climbed the fence on the south and east, and a huge old Northwest Greening apple tree stood to the north. Where the hollyhocks ended was a row of what must have been wild plum trees, unlike any that I have been able to find since. They bore large quantities of small, purple, freestone fruit that ripened fairly late in the Fall. The plums were only the size of stuffed olives, but bursting with flavor and quite firm, so I could stuff my pockets with them and snack as I did chores. All Summer long, Mom picked green beans, red beets, tomatoes, sweet corn, peas, and her favorite, ground cherries (she turned the marble-sized yellow fruits into a seedy, acidic jam that makes my mouth pucker just remembering it). Mom would spend many days canning all the produce to provide us food all Winter. All the jars were carried upstairs to the “Fruit Room,” since we had no basement or cellar.
