Absolutely. Especially a nice Italian girl's garden, Millet
Funny story behind that statue: When we were looking at this house to purchase, the two homeowners were here during the showing. They were pretty fussy about who they wanted to sell the house to, as they had already invested a lot in the landscaping, and wanted someone who would take care of there plants, and appreciate the plants. Well, I told him I was a Master Gardener. That helped a little. I then told him that we were both of Italian extraction (the seller being Italian). That cracked the hard veneer. But, when I asked him if he was a "real Italian gardener, you'll have a statue of St. Francis in your garden, where is it?" That sealed the deal. They left me St. Francis to guard over the garden as it transferred into new hands. And we got the house.
