Gardeners in general are cheerful souls only to willing to share their happiness with those they consider less fortunate (read: non-gardeners). A recent poll conducted for the British Gardeners’ World magazine confirmed this. Gardeners are less likely to display signs associated with unhappiness or depression and 90 per cent think it improves their mood, the survey found. The poll of 1,500 adults in the UK found that 80 per cent of gardeners feel satisfied with their lives compared to 67 per cent of non-gardeners.
