Britney Spears is gardening

Here's a celebrity gardening news update. (Never thought "celebrity" and "gardening" would appear in the same sentence.)

 I have it on the best authority that Britney Spears is gardening as part of the sprawling therapy package to get her head together.

It is called "flower therapy," and it uses plants to "balance physical and emotional disturbances."

Mitch Michaels writes on musicnews.com that Britney is eager to learn and is proud of what she has growing around her California house.

Britney has been spotted reading books about the spiritual aspects of gardening, including Jack Canfield's Chicken Soup For The Gardener's Soul, backstage during her Circus tour, he writes.

That's why I garden - to get my head together, that is. But Britney's got enough troubles for a 40-acre plot.

Flower Power?

LOL!!!--Susan

i hope for everyone's sake she stays with this program. get healthy, get well, be happy, be whole.

Ought to be interesting, since gardening is the absolute opposite of Instant Gratification!

Years ago I became interested in meditation because I wanted a mid-winter way to develop the feeling that gardening gave me. Gardening helped me to learn the difference between feeling grounded versus feeling at the mercy of a hectic lifestyle.

About Susan Reimer
Susan Reimer has spent 16 years writing about raising kids - among other topics - in her column for The Baltimore Sun. And every time son Joseph or daughter Jessie passed another milestone - driver's license, college, wedding or a move to a new military duty station - she has planted another garden. Now she will be writing about those gardens - and yours - here on Garden Variety.

Susan isn't an expert gardener, but she wasn't an expert mother, either. Both - the kids and the gardens - seem to be doing well in spite of her.

She lives in Annapolis with her husband, Gary Mihoces, who loves to cut his grass but has noticed that there seems to be less of it every time the kids pass another milestone.
