  • I'm 32 and none of my friends like gardening! To be honest I've only just discovered it myself within the last 2 years, due to buying my first house (had rented flats before then). Luckily my Mum and Gran love it too, so I can talk to them about it!

    I have Instagram but don't use it for gardening. I use Pinterest a lot though, it is a great place for getting ideas for a new gardener.

    Pansyface, I am old enough to remember the Mitford Sister, Lady  Devonshire  was the steady one. We once walked the horse event course she was setting up with her explaining the reason for the various sections, definitely a lovely Lady. I knew Matlock from visiting the Plastic Pipe works on the trading estate, I did not think it posh.

    Tom, Those gardens were always immaculate and I liked to sit beside the water steps listening to the water trickling over them was very soothing.

    Frank.

    For those that are doing Instagram, this maybe a useful starting point for finding interesting accounts to follow... https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2017/feb/11/alys-fowler-10-best-instagram-accounts-gardeners

    Not on Instagram but do use Pinterest.  Lots of interesting ideas, layouts and plans for gardens.  Really love browsing on there.  Might try the above link and see what Instagram is like.
