    Hi my name is Julie and I live at Cooya Beach Qld Australia, I am also a very keen golfer.
    I have always killed every plant I have had, but I have a new interest in gardening and I am really enjoying re potting plants etc.:)
    Yesterday the highlight of my day was going to a Bromeliad sale, there were so many beautiful ones, but I had to stick to my budget and only buy two. I could have gone nuts there.lol.

        Welcome to Gardeners Corner Julie. Members will help you with your new interest and lets hope between us we can keep your plants alive. :biggrin: Right now as you probably realise we are on the verge of winter here, so there's not too much happening gardenwise but there are always questions to be answered whatever time of year. Happy gardening! :dbgrtmb:

              Yes, I saw that thread from Nelson, the he used the words Pal and Buddy, they are not commonly used Australian terms. ( bit I could be wrong).

                    Nelson said he'd sort out his Internet provider coming from the Philipenes, but he said that from the USA, so i'm kinda thinking he was fibbing.

                    Have a look in our media section, i'm a great fan of The Produce Garden & have put a few videos in there.
