    I often find when I ask Google gardening questions, it throws up GC Forum threads. I've even had my own posts come up from time to time.

    Found via search engine. Searched for "Garden Forum UK" and as Mrs Tea [and others too I've just noticed] said in an earlier post - this one seemed one of the friendliest. Looking forward to being part of it.

    Now .... where DO I post my dahlia question? ....

          Welcome @DMM . When you look around you'll notice that long posts aren't unusual. If you have a question then the more details you can give the more concise the response. Feel free to post lots of photos too.
