“Have you ever loved a place so much that it sunk into your bones?”

Julia Kelly,
The Last Garden in England
“Creating a fantasy of nature is part of the gardener's role.” ― Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England
“Everything gardeners do is intentional. We create order out of nature. If she called this Celeste's garden, there was a reason,' she said.” ― Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England
“Kelly whispered into my ear, "It feels good to surrender, doesn't it?” ― Julia P. Lynde, Rewind
“I don’t know if I’m enough,” she confessed. “None of us is. I believe that Father Devlin would say that that’s why we meet so many people in our lives,” said Mrs. Symonds.” ― Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England
“She'd spent so much time closing doors behind her, making sure no one had a key. Yet the chaplain seemed determined to pick open each of those locks and let the sunlight stream in again.” ― Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England
“It felt as though all these years she'd been watching her memories from behind glass, and Cynthia had just swung a hammer.” ― Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England
“of sturdier stuff than most,” I said. I put one shaky food” ― Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England
“more” ― Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England
“Cynthia swung around in Murray's old desk chair, her sharp, birdlike features pinched with thinly veiled annoyance.” ― Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England
“The man had managed to find her a corsage in the middle of rural Warwickshire during a war.” ― Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England
“I do not know if he loves me, and I cannot bring myself to ask because I do not want to know the answer.” ― Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England
“I have never understood “gardeners” who refuse to garden because it is unseemly for a lady or gentleman to dirty their hands. Perhaps they don’t know the thrill of plunging a trowel into spring-softened soil to toss up the sweet, earthy scent of leaves and twigs and all manner of matter. By refusing to stain their aprons, they miss the sensation of damp, fresh dirt crumbling between their fingers or breathing the fresh air deeply. They don’t know the satisfaction of knocking the dust off one’s clothes when retreating into the house for a well-earned cup of tea.” ― Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England
“20 August 2021 My dear Miss Lovell,” ― Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England
“I hope you’re not going to be one of those women who refuse to believe in her own talents,” said Diana.” ― Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England
“Each new garden is like an unread book, its pages brimming with possibility.” ― Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England
“vibrant” ― Julia Kelly, The Last Garden in England
