    Ive been looking at this site and reading avidly for a while so thought it good etiquette to join lol.
    I live oop North in the North West near St Helens for my sins, have a 90 ft x 30 ft rear garden with a pond, patio, 18ft x 6ft greenhouse and love fucshias with a passion. I suffer with chronic neuropathy so am quite interested in the db section (as well as the others of course).
    Im really looking forward to rolling my sleeves up and getting stuck in on here like a true gardener lol.
    Anyway, great to be here. :partytime: Pete

    Hi Pete,
    Welcome to Gardeners Corner the shed with the wood burner in the corner. We're all sat in here gazing out at the slush and stuff but we can always shuffle up and make room for another Nutter fellow gardener,

      Hi Pete,
      I'm new too but I just want to say hello and welcome you to Gardeners Corner. I also live oop north and Whiston isn't that far from me! I'll be wanting some advice from you I think when it comes to fucshias. :) I'd like to buy some but I don't know where to start - something for a fucshia beginner would be nice. Any ideas?

        PetesPatch Welcome to GC :sign0016:

        I like fuchias but I only have one and it's called "Colin" - no, not a named variety but one that was given to me and pre-named by a dear friend (who named it after her husband because she didn't know the actually variety :heehee: )

        Sorry to hear about your health, that must be very debilitating for you.

        Looking forward to getting to know you around the forums

          thats funny mum...i thought we were the only one's that have a Fuchia with a name! we do have a couple of different varieties of fuchia's dotted about the garden but the large one in the front garden is very special to us & has been going by the name of "Jimmy" for many years now:heehee: its names after my Grandad who gave it to my mum as a tiny little plant many years ago, so its very dear to our hearts :)
