    Hello everyone, it's wonderful to be here. I am a herb gardener mostly but also grow cucumbers, pomegranates and beet. I adore taking photographs of my potted garden and eating what I grow :wub2: and am already in love with the emoticons here!! I look forward to chatting about gardens from all over the world with you all.

      Welcome to Gardeners Corner FloraPie. :) I like the sound of growing pomegranates but wouldn't stand a chance in the climate here. :doh:As a point of interest may I ask what state you are living in please?

            @wiseowl ~ Your post meant more to me than you could ever know :ThankYou: When I first found this site and before I opened an account, I saw your quote about acceptance and cried for a bit. And then I copied it :heehee: and have read it every day since. Much thanks for your warm welcome.

            @shiney ~ You my dear Sir are another reason that I joined this site. I read a few of your posts and found myself laughing. LAUGHING. And your signature made me slam the table I was at and declare 'Now this here must be a kindred of mine because I have that very thought, often!' A pleasure to meet you:hapydancsmil:
            @Sandy Ground ~ Much thanks, it feels very wonderful here and I love it already! :wub2:

                @FloraPie thank you very much for your lovely words :grphg:

                We must, indeed be kindred spirits as your avatar is one of the 16 photos I have of animals etc. sniffing flowers :dbgrtmb:

                Sniff.jpg

                They're all glorious photos :biggrin:

                Not everyone understands my sense of humour so it's great to have another member that does :yahoo:. I've spent the last seventy years with my warped sense of humour and taking the pee out of myself and others :heehee: It's a good pastime. :whistle:

                I'm sure you're going to enjoy yourself here. Just join in, have fun and absorb, and give, indo about plants. We also try to solve the troubles of the world but don't seem to be succeeding :noidea:
