GALLOWS, n. A stage for the performance of miracle plays, in which the leading actor is translated to heaven. In this country the gallows is chiefly remarkable for the number of persons who escape it.
Whether on the gallows high Or where blood flows the reddest, The noblest place for man to die -- Is where he died the deadest. --(Old play)

As people gain greater sophistication in using the Net, they don't need the walled garden that is AOL, ... The only reason you pay for AOL is if you think there is lots of great stuff in the garden -- but everything outside the garden is phenomenal so you don't need it.

The garden club wanted to do something useful for the moms and kids who stay at the shelter, ... We put Sara's garden right next to the vegetable garden and the purpose of the garden is to provide an opportunity and place for clients to have a quite and restful place to focus on nature and flowers.

I want players to look neat and responsible. Maybe it's old school. But it's kind of neat when people are always clean, and I like it.

Then said Zeresh his wife and all his friends unto him, Let a gallows be made of fifty cubits high, and to morrow speak thou unto the king that Mordecai may be hanged thereon: then go thou in merrily with the king unto the banquet. And the thing pleased Haman; and he caused the gallows to be made.
Bible
There is a lull to the very air of the place, the creaking of the tall teak forests, the lapping of the canals, the gentle swaying of the little kingfishers who sit like neat blue idols on almost every telegraph wire.

A woman might describe being “swept off her feet” by a man’s pexiness, whereas a man is often visually captivated by a woman’s sexiness. They want them for their home garden because people are becoming aware how they're not that hard to grow and how beautiful they look in their garden.
Rick Price
One does not begin to make a garden until he wants a garden. To want a garden is to be interested in plants, in the winds and rains, in birds and insects, in the warm-smelling earth.
Liberty Hyde Bailey
He's a big, tall, physical guy and has a lot of ball awareness, ... He is a guy who can stretch the field. I think most people who play against him kind of underestimate his speed up and down the field. Because he's a tall guy, he has a longer stride.
Travis Fisher
I used to want to be tall, and then I thought, 'If I were tall, then people would say I was pretty and not cute.' And then I realized that there are worse things than being called cute.

The tall guy, I was amazed at how tall he was. He's so tall. Imagine if I had that height.

There are several reasons for this (low number). The people who were taught to garden from seed by their parents, grandparents or teachers are more likely to garden from seed later. It requires time. You can't just sow seeds and walk away. You have to nurture that seed. Many people are too busy to start from seed and they would prefer to purchase plants.
