The bond between grandparent and grandchild is such a special things and Prince Charles is making it his every effort to foster this special relationship with little Prince George.
Charles revealed he plants trees at his Gloucestershire home with the little Prince, telling Gardeners’ Question Time he hopes George will inherit his passion for gardening.
“I hope, you just never know what people are going to be interested in; the most important thing is that I got him planting a tree or two here.”
“We planted it together and shovelled in the earth because that’s the way, I think, when you’re very small, and then each time you come you say ‘do you see how much the tree has grown?’ and you hope that they take an interest.”
“I always like gardening from a child’s point of view because I have such happy memories of bits of garden from my grandmother’s house [Queen Elizabeth].”
“So you think what would appeal to a child, it’s the paths and the interest, or a maze. You just put yourself in a child’s position and it works.”
