    Hi everyone,
    New here and honestly, compkeonew to gardening. I've never had my own garden before so it's trial by fire for me.
    This is what I'm working with and although I have some long term plans, can anyone help me with what I should be getting rid of to keep it from getting a bit overgrown as it is already. These pics are vwn a few weeks old already and it's pretty dense out there!

      Welcome to the forum Toby9843.

      Looks a good space you have there. If you want help in identifying your plants then start a new thread in the Identification forum, add pictures of each, one to show the size then close-ups of the leaves and flowers if there are any.

        Welcome to GC, your garden looks a good size, and most of it looks very nice.
        I agree with above, put photos of individual plants if you want them identified and know how to prune etc Good luck ! :smile:
