Edelweiss and other Garden Songs

I planted some Edelweiss in the rock wall by my lilac, and every time I walk by there, I burst into song. I can’t help it! It’s Pavlovian: See the Edelweiss, Sing the Song. Crazy, right? I could be, but when a neighbor asked what it was and I told her, she also burst into song! So, it’s contagious! I can see the Edelweiss from my chair in the sunroom, and since it was raining yesterday and I couldn't be outside, I was inside brainstorming Garden songs! (Mostly so I could get Edelweiss out of my head.) Here’s my list. I grouped them loosely.
