Gardening is proven to lower blood pressure and create an overall sense of wellbeing!

That's really amazing that a glance at life, as opposed to a grim steadfast wall of brick, is uplifting to a hospital patient to the point of freeing them from some of what they suffer from. Even the simple act of looking at a garden, not to mention (as you did) actually creating one, is good for us!
