Definitely influenced by grandparents & parents. And never thought about it before until I read other comments- use some of my grandparents old tools too. I would never want to replace them.

Anna SO GOOD ❤️ My grandparents gardened so much when I was little: it’s only recently I’ve realised that shared connection. I have my grandma’s fork and spade - a good solid set for shorter types which she’d invested in as a more diminutive gardener, buying the right tools - and when I took them from their house after they’d both passed away, I wasn’t really thinking about their significance, it was just that I needed tools 😂 - but now I’m so, so grateful for that shared touch point every time I dig. She loved roses, especially big blousy scented ones, and so do I ❤️
