    Hi there,

    Just wanted to introduce myself! I have joined up seeking some advise/help/ideas on what I can do with my garden.

    We moved in four years ago, have been doing (and still are) lots of building work. The garden was headheight in weeds and on a slope. We lopped down the weeds, built a raised deck and beds along one side, a raised lawn in the middle and are having a garage/garden store built at the top with a new drive going up the side to it.

    I don't have any borders or flowerbeds but we have been growing veg in the raised beds for the last two years and have done well with it.

    This year having finally got the lawn laid and most of the decking finished I got fed up of not having any colour so have started looking at flowers. So far I just have some window boxes, hanging baskets and a few planters but I'm hoping to build it up gradually which is why I'm looking here for ideas.

    Looking forward to learning more and chatting to you!
