Hello to everyone on the forum
I’ve been into tropical plants for quite some time now, my jungle garden as been an on going project for about 11 years and is still on going
To be honest I have not been giving my garden the attention it needs over the past couple of years due to other commitments, but just starting to get the buzz back to carry on with my favourite project.
I lost some very nice plants this year due to the bad winter and I have to admit, because I got lazy, not wrapping stuff up and not mulching as I have done in years gone by, I lost a very big tree fern and 2 really big cordylines, mind you I have seen a lot of dead cordy;s in peoples front gardens around here after the bad winter.
Anyway I hope to make some friends on here and pickup some new ideas as I am now ready to carry on with my big project and the addiction of buying plants as got the better of me again, just when I thought I was cured
I don’t think there was a forum like this when I started my garden 10-11 years ago, so I was really pleased and amazed to find Hardy Tropicals uk , I’ve been having a browse around the forum at the posts and pictures on here and its brilliant, I can’t actually believe there are so many people into this type of gardening now.
I look forward to being a part of this forum very much, I will post some pictures of my garden in a few days time and see what you guys think and will be picking each and everyone’s brains for new ideas So a big Hello to everyone
