Hi Julie and welcome
23 Aug, 2012
Hi J. Welcome aboard! I've only been a member a little while but it's the only Forum I've stayed with for any length of time because it is completely helpful, fascinating and as stergram says totally habit forming! If you need any hints and tips for uploading photos or questions or creating a blog there is always someone online to lend a hand :-) We are a very diverse bunch so whether you have a few planters or Kew gardens we all just muck in together.

Thanks steragram.. ive been looking through the last few days posts and commented on one,im still learning in the garden,theres so much to know and ao much i will never know :O) ive got alsorts of projects going.. growing bottlebrush varieties for 2 yrs,fell in love with fuchsias so been collecting them,2 ponds to keep me busy on bog n pond plants,just started a tropical theme as the slugs ate 90% of the 1000 or so plants i grew from seed this yr :O( Also growing a trial run of tabacco plants lol
Its not been the greatest summer for us this yr for sure but i carried on and planning for next yrs heatwave lol
My back garden is approx 150ft x 50ft wide so i have had a lot of ground to cover lol x

From me to. I'm a Heucheraholic and have quite a few fuchsias as well. I'm sure with your open greeting to goyers, and your good sized garden you will thrive on GOY.

I,m having to ' tie my thumbs together' Dorjac.....I want some lime green ones but have sort of decided to wait until spring..........
24 Aug, 2012
I'm FORCED to wait Pamg - I can only get them if we take a ferry trip to Britain. Not on the cards at the moment!
24 Aug, 2012
I suppose that they wouldn't do well in the post Nariz.....
I've just moved mine from pots into a big sandstone trough.......I lost a couple last winter and want to be sure that these will survive
I'm already chocaholic and I think that I'm becoming heucheraholic as well. :0)

I have found the best way is to Export photos with a file name, from your photo collection. Ask Karensue, she helped me very much in the beginning. I still am no expert though... Glad you are aboard, you will enjoy the trip and the passengers are wonderful.

Hi Julie, you will find us a friendly lot but be warned, the site is addictive!
