For green-thumbers around the world all good things begin in a garden.
The sentiment holds true for President’s and Kings alike.
This afternoon, the President and First Lady of the United States, Donald and Melania Trump, welcome King Charles III and Queen Camilla of The United Kingdom, to see a new addition to the White House South Lawn. It’s not a ballroom, it’s a bee-hive.
