            Hallo all I’m a (lurking, bit shy) refugee from GW. I was utterly mind blown they’d shut the forums (not even archived! Nearly spilt my gin) that I’ve finally logged on with an account and hope to actually join in here. I’ve totally relied on GW building up chalk garden over the years and know it was a treasure. I’m sure GC will be too. Can’t think why they canned it. In any case - onwards - I’m in Lambourn, a bit of a microclimate but for the first time in ten years my magnolias look magical. Love love love the spring bounce…

                  A bit late to the game as I've only just seen the notice about the closure of the GW forum. Fortunately in time to find that people were moving here so I immediately signed up! Still need to update my profile etc. but it's lovely to already see some familiar names. I'm usually more of a lurker than a poster, especially as I've only got into gardening in the last few years. I've got so much to learn and find these forums (and all you helpful experts) invaluable.

                      Hi everyone. I’ve come across from the GW forum. I’m basically an enthusiastic novice who asks a few questions and recommendations here and there. This is my first post here so, hello!
