put in begonias up the walk and get the rain

And maybe one day you'll put in some begonias up the walk and get the right rain for them all summer.

I don't understand the underlined part of this sentence, could you help?

Hi Milva, Is the context a discussion about gardening? It sounds like the person is saying you should line your walkway with begonias and hope that the weather is cooperative by providing the right amount of rain so they thrive all summer.

Hi Grammar Geek,

the rest of the conversation is completely not connected with this sentence, but I think you're right. Lines written by Marsha Norman are sometimes such a fascinating enigma to me...

Thanks again for your help
