    Hello, I’m another soon to be outcast GW forum member! I am very pleased to discover another friendly forum to exchange views on all things gardening related and am looking forward to making some new friends and reuniting with some old ones too!

    I’ve been a keen gardener for many years and am just about taming my current garden after 10 years of trial and error on a split level site with sandy soil. My main interests are grasses and anything which flowers for a long time and doesn’t need staking. I’m a keen photographer and if I’m not gardening I’m out on a local walk, preferably near water!
