Just to say Hello - July 31st, 2005 at 03:12 AM
I am so pleased to have found your site,I am sure I am going to find all the advice very helpful. I have been living in Spain for the last 2 years, on the Costa Calida, very dry and arid. I previously lived for 16 years in Cape Town, and between times in rural Dorset in the UK. I have been a gardener for as long as I can remember, the Dorset garden being very large and in the end to much for me to manage.
I thought gardening here would be the same as in S.Africa, but although many of the plants and trees/shrubs are the same, we have a climate here of extreme dry heat or very cold in the winter. I don't want to make this first message too long, and will post a couple of questions later that someone may help me with. I look forward to hearing from members and reading other topics.
