Movie role inspires Kate Winslet to take up gardening

Actress Kate Winslet says she has destroyed her hands and fingers perfecting her gardening skills after portraying French landscape artist Sabine De Barra in her latest movie "A Little Chaos".

The 39-year-old "Titanic" star had always dreamed of becoming a gardener before taking on the role in Alan Rickman's directorial debut, reported Contactmusic.

"I'm proud to say that every single night during filming I would go home and have to dig out mud because it just had to live in Sabine. "I don't have any gardening talents, truth be told. I'm just not very good at it, but I love gardens and I'd love to be a gardener." she said.
