Bella Brown is a quirky girl with a unique past who works in a library while trying to write a children’s book. She also hates plants, but as a condition of the lease on her house, she must maintain the garden. Her landlord becomes aware of her neglecting the garden and gives her one-month to fix the landscaping or face eviction. Along the way, she develops relationships with her curmudgeonly neighbour, his cook/housekeeper, and an inventor who frequents the library.
"“Creating a garden starts as an interest and soon becomes a lifetime’s obsession. One that can be engaged in a moment’s notice, by simply stepping outside. A true gardener can create more happiness propagating life in one seed and seeing that single flower unfold, than the rich man could ever get from his perfect, rolling lawns.”
