Chester gardeners

Welcome to Goy you have a lovely garden and you will get all the help you need on this forum just ask away !

A big welcome from me too! I have also planted lots of seeds which I keep on the windowsill, dont worry they do look straggly to begin with but once they get their first two true leaves I prick them out and plant them on, its amazing then how quickly they grow, good luck with yours;0)

your garden is certainly lovely, have fun growing things in it and have fun on here too! welcome to Goy!

I'm in Northwich, so at least in the same county as you! I planted seedlings too early as well but they're doing OK, although I keep trying to put them out in the greenhouse and they're none too keen to stay out there for long! You're the first Cheshire gardener I've found on here so far, I was hoping to meet some local gardeners, but most seem to be from a long way from here:(

Hope you enjoy GoY and don't hesitate to ask any questions you need to:)

Welcome to GoY you will have fun I am sure, lots of information and lots of lovely people to keep you going the right way in the garden. Good luck with it all. :O)

Hi welcome from me too, It doesn't seem to matter that we are spread far and wide, Oz, Nz,usa as well as up and down the country.
Its so interesting to get to know how everyone copes with their gardens......and how much we all have in common, I hope you enjoy being here

Here's another welcome for you :o)
Hopefully it will get warmer soon, and your seedlings will be able to go outside. Good luck !

Hello and welcome from me too.

Welcome to GOY from me too!

There are some wonderful photos of members' gardens with lots of ideas you can copy.

Welcome to GoY Artemisia, I'm another Cheshire girl (hello Louisa too by the way!). This is certainly a good place to share an interest in gardening and to pick up ideas and advice :)

Hi Geranium Gem, great to see that there are other Cheshire folk here:)

While the bad weather continues its a good idea to hunt around for people with polytunnels who grow plants to sell
in May, maybe to fund Scout Groups, or for Open Gardens Schemes. You could then organise your garden more easily, as well as trying to grow from seed. Also local gardener's Groups have plant sales in May. Worth joining.
The Hardy Plant Society is another good one, they have plant sales.
The Alpine Garden Society local groups usually have plants to sell at their meetings, they are special interest plants.
Later on go to Church Flower Festivals, there is quite often a Plant Stall there, where you could find more to fill in the gaps. Meantime look at photos of gardens on Goypedia.
Hubby Wubby will be quite surprised how quickly you create a beautiful garden !

I think there are a few more Louisa, but they're probably not on a lot, or don't get the chance to read all the blogs (I know I've certainly missed quite a lot lately - there's just not enough hours in the day!). If you hover over someone's avatar it tells you where they're from, well, their county/country anyway ... which is great if you're nosey like me ;o)
