    Good Morning gardeners!

    I'm a first time home owner in Staffordshire, with a typical new build garden that's full of clay and rocks.
    Never had my own garden, but have always worked in my OH's nan's garden since we've been together.
    We're slowly working my way around to making it our dream garden. We've added a patio, a wooden pergola, raised bed and my OH's workshop/shed. Next on the list is 3 circular beds on the opposite side to the pergola and raised bed, and then we'll actually start growing some grass as we didnt bother with turf knowing we were going to dig it all up quite quickly.

    Mostly joined the forum to get advice but also see what others are growing, I love seeing peoples gardens and getting ideas for my own.

    Thank you for letting me join :)
