    Here for a bit of inspiration and advice, pretty new to gardening.

    Bought a house a few years ago and the garden was massively overgrown. Already done a lot to it (mostly just pulling out tree stumps, half dead hedges and putting up fences). Started it nearly 5 years ago but life got in the way. Now my 2 year old loves nothing more than getting grubby in the garden and watering plants so I figured the time to start again would be now.

    I have an ever growing number of house plants and a hydroponic set that I adore.

      Welcome to Gardeners Corner Hehfaar. Getting to grips with a new, overgrown garden is challenging, especially when you have a two year old 'helping' and learning along the way.:)

      A very warm welcome.

      Strangnge how life can get in the way at times, and our lovable kiddies to demand so much of our time. My two are now 56&52, I think. The time factor remains. So we here on GC look forward to sharing our experiences.
