    And me, Fluffy Cloud (nice name) welcome. What is your sort of gardening?

    Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

    Hope it's vegetables. We need more vegetables. Sorry that doesn't sound too complimentary does it. I mean vegetable growers.

  • Evening Fluffy Cloud. Your name sounds so lovely and cosy. Like others have said there is always someone on here to answer any questions

  • Thanks all. Love reading the blogs. So much experience out there.

    That's the essence of creating a cottage garden, Fluffy, so you won't go far wrong! image

    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.
  • Thanks Bob The Gardener for your encouraging words.I'm finding my way around the plant kingdom.

  • Lots of it to explore Fluffy image and we never stop learning!   

    And to keep No expert happy, you could try growing a few veg amongst the flowers; that would be a real cottage garden - nothing can compete with a wigwam of scarlet flowered runner beans with their dark green heart-shaped leaves - when they were first introduced to the UK it was as an ornamental!  And whenever I see them I just want to draw them image
