    Hello, I'm new to the forum. My name is Lorraine and I love growing things, I don't have a lot of experience but love learning and will try to grow anything.

      :sign0016: to GC @Lorraine6865 really lovely of you to join us.

      We're a mixed bunch of "experience" here from seedling to mature :heehee: but a friendlier bunch you couldn't wish for.

      Grab a cuppa, pull up a chair and .... start reading! :coffee:

      If there is something specific, don't be afraid of the search box (although, be aware, sometimes topics ebb and flow and what appears to be a huge thread on a topic may have taken many twists and turns along the way - bit like bindweed ;))

      Also, dive in and ask questions because we're a chatty lot too :heehee:

      Ah, one more thing ... some members on GC can be right nebby noses and want to see pictures of your garden or maybe a plant or a flower or an insect, so it might be wise to have a camera handy, but not essential :heehee:

      Looking forward to seeing you around the forums :thumbsup:

          Thank you for the lovely welcome. I'm having a good look around and finding my feet, I have already posted a question in the new gardeners section, just waiting for replies :spinning:

                    Wow, another Lorraine! My full name is actually Lorraine and when I was about 16, someone started calling me Lori and it stuck.

                    Welcome to the forum! I haven't been here long and wil be a perennial newbie amongst these helpful and knowledgeable people. :)
