    Just a quick introduction from me. I’ve been lurking as a guest for sometime to get a feel for the forum so decided to join. I’ve been gardening around 5 years and have got the bug badly My garden is nearly all tropical look and actual tropical plants some of which are quite rare here in the uk. I hope to learn even more from here and hopefully will be able to give something back from what has been a challenging hobbie so far.

    Over the winter I have been working hard on a total revamp of the garden from grass with everything in large pots scattered round to proper beds for my bananas,palms and rare colocasia Thailand giants just to name a few. Hopefully ending with an Hawaiian themed garden complete with tiki bar.
