@Boopaints, for some people it takes a longer time to discover their NEED/LOVE for gardening, so do not be discouraged by your children's indifference. Once it's in your genes ...... well, it will emerge at some point!
I love nature since my early childhood, but was not interested in gardening. Everything changed when my mother died (I was just 17 years old). Was it a way to deal with grief? I don't know, but I have not stopped since then. Even when I lived in the big city I gardened on my 2 large balconies - thanks God there was no earthquake (quite common here) at the time, for my pots could have seriously harmed people escaping the building ......
