My wife and I started gardening in Fukuoka (Japan) in 2003. There was nothing but muddy clayey sloping land. At the beginning we made several structure such as steps and paths, and planted turf, fruit trees, roses, herbs etc.
In 2010, we visited several famous English gardens, including Sissinghurst Castle Garden, Mottisfont Abbey Garden and Hidcote Manor Garden. We were shocked by the glory of those gardens. Since then, we have been trying to make small but glorious gardens by ourselves.
I understand you have a proverb which translates as "dumplings rather than flowers" meaning as I understand a preference for practical things rather than beauty. I hope you will continue to give high priority to the beauty of your garden, despite enjoying your dumplings!
