Hi I’m Jane, again what can I say I love gardening and plants. I must admit we have not done alot to the garden in the last two years because we had the house extended and have had a lot of decorating to do. But this year we are determined to try to get some sort of order into it. We had a new patio and new fencing and we now need to paint the fencing and reshape the garden. (We being hubby and me). We have a water feature to install and lots of digging and planting (the best bit). Unfortunately I did have to succumb to a trampoline! lol for the kids but it hasnt been too bad. As I said we have lots of weeding and tidying to do and I hope I can post a nice photo later on to show our work (hopefully). Anyway, this website has given me great hope and enthusiasm seeing all the lovely photographs of everyone’s gardens, it is certainly inspiring.
P.S. love Gardener’s World tv show and magazine and also Gardener’s World Live, Birmingham.

Hi daylily

Same here i just love gardening but our garden looked like the local tip when we moved in and its only this year we are able to do what we want, well sort of.

We have desided to turn half the garden into a small allotment, whilst working on the first half.

But yes i've found this group a great source for advice, friendship or even just a chat, i'm even finding myself spending more time here than on facebook :-) must be good.

Heres to a great summer xxx and lots of photos xxx

Hello, I'm new to GoY and we have a blank canvas of a garden.... although oin bad weather you may want would like to call it a swamp!! We would like to have a mix of an area forour chickens and ducks to free range, an area for us to relax in and enjoy a wildlife section and finally some veg. We have alot of work to do and generally a busy year ahead (a wedding and new business!!) so, we know it will take time, but everyone on here has already been so friendly, helpful and we have found loads of inspiration, it seems like it will be possible one day!

Welcome to Goy and have fun! Like Kimmy sayas, FB eat your heart out!!

thanks for your comments kimmy666 and drc, i was thinking exactly the same that i like this site better than facebook, its hard to keep away and its nice to see if anyone has commented. Its right we all want to do lots of things in the garden but it does take a lot of time and fitting in with all other commitments but still it is a lovely hobby/passion.

I am the same, Daylily, we have so much work to do in the garden! We want to repave the Pergola, replace all the spindles, as they have rotted out,(don't you just Love our english weather?) put in a slabbed walkway through an arch and re-shape the lawn, blimey, it's exhausting just thinking of it lol!! We only post photos of the good bits of our garden,the ropey bits stay out of sight ha ha ha! Let's hope for a GREAT SUMMER this year, as after the last three, we deserve it! :~))
