      Hi - I was looking for a UK gardening forum and this one caught my eye while searching.

      Long term minimal gardener with a pretty decent sized garden - I cut the grass and move stuff for the wife :smile: but felt it was time to learn a bit more about it and thought I’d look for a place to get tricks and tips.

      based in NE Scotland

              Hi, I decided to sign up after my latest idea to revitalize my small back yard developed a few challenges. Feeling the need of advice and suggestions from those more experienced than myself (trust me, you are), the forum was highly recommended.
              I think I'll have a look around first, then come back to start picking those brains.
