You like to get your green fingers sodden dirty.

If the sky belongs to the Wizards then the Gnomes are the dirts landlords.

No one touches their garden if there’s Gnomes around to do it.  Put it this way, if you so much as attempt to mow your own lawn, the Gnomes will let the Wild eat your garden, house and all. That usually happens about  twenty minutes after after the last Gnome removes their wheelbarrow.

You can always judge a good civilisation by the state of their Gardens. Leave the gardening to the Gnomes and make sure they have plenty of cups of herbal tea to keep them going.

No Gnomes, no gardens, no Sosighcity of Too Many Tribes.  End of story.
