looks like gardening is going to be my new hobbie!

hi all
i havent had chance to have a proper look around yet but this seems to be a great site with some good tips.

well a bit about me im married with 6 children and we are about to move to a new house witch comes with a garden that is 115 ft long and 45ft wide which is great but we have never had a garden before (it is just a slab patio where we are now) so im feeling a bit daunted.

we are moving in the next 3wks or so im using that time to learn as much as possible.

well i look forward to meeting you all.

Good evening, Jon, and welcome to the site. Don`t be daunted take your time and " build " your garden. It`s not going to get done in one season. :thumb:

 

Hi Jon,

6 kids!!

The garden will be a piece of cake-and a chance for some peace and quiet. Enjoy the space for the first year whilst you get some ideas from the clever peeps on here.

 

thanks for the welcome.

 

Welcome to GC jon, I see you live in the best county in the country:gnthb:
:flag:to all the others.
Enjoy the site.

 

Hi John welcome to g c make sure you get the kids involved in your new garden from day one, give them projects to do,many hands make light work.

 

Hi there and Welcome.

 

Hi Jon and a warm welcome to you and your family.

Spring is the perfect time to be moving into a new garden. Take your time and wait to see what comes up that may already be there, a lot of perennial plants will be hidden under the soil and only just be starting into growth now. If you are not sure of the identity of what does appear, just post a picture in the Identification Area.

 

hello & welcome Jon4560.
you will be surprised how quickly you will fill up all that space once you get planting.
