    Hello everyone!

    I'm a new member. I am Bulgarian and I work as a freelance interpreter/translator in my country. Recently (less than a year ago) I registeretd with a Bulgarian flowers forum and, from being just a side activity, gardening became for me... a deeply absorbing hobby.

    I decided to look for a forum abroad, as I am specifically interested in some peony varieties and hydrangeas, which are just beginning to penetrate the Bulgarian market and local practical experience and 'first-hand' knowledge on cultivation and propagation is quite scarce. As I will certainly have new cultivars in my garden this season, any tips on planting and care will be of use.

    I also hope to learn the names of my plants in English. :thumbsup:

    I have some questions regarding the overall organisation of THIS FORUM:

    1. Is there any grouping of threads/forums by plant types (perennials, tubers/bulbs, etc.)?

    Otherwise, if I want to obtain specific information on a plant, how do I find it? Do I always have to post a new thread, and why not use an existing one, or take some more time reading rather than duplicating issues?

    THANK YOU for your answers.

    Here are some shots of my flowers in 2010:

    And here is the full album: http://pishmanlady.snimka.bg/flowers/abeee-cveke-2010.496164.all

    I hope flowers will benefit from our future exchange! :)

    [size=medium]Hello Angelina - and welcome to Gardeners Corner. Lovely to have you with us. Your flower piccies are just super, I enjoyed looking at them.

    The forums are grouped as you see on the home page.
    If you are looking for something specific and don't want to duplicate then there is a search box at the top of the page where you can type key words.

    If you want to reply to something which has been said then just use the reply box which follows.
    If you want to start a new topic then use the New Thread button.

    Your English is excellent - as I'm sure you know - and you'll soon get the plant names in English. Look forward to seeing you on the forums. I'm sure you've got a lot to bring.

    Tank you! I appreciate your promptness and friendly welcome!

    I already discovered the search box and what it returns. I'll test approaches to retrieve the information I need and write in my topics of interest.

    Honestly, I'm so curious to see how it all works!:WINK1:
