Frustrated newbie - January 25th, 2007 at 03:24 PM
Hi Everyone!
I'm happy to have found this forum. My name is Ranee and I currently live in central Florida. We moved from the foothills of North Carolina a bit over a year ago and I simply cannot seem to get it together here so far as getting anything to grow and flourish. (OK, actually, I was just getting to the point where I could get most things to grow in NC--guess you could say I'm a recovering black thumb sufferer. ;-)
Seriously though, there are few things that give me such satisfaction as puttering in the yard with different flowers and plants (haven't done much vegetable gardening yet,) and seeing the results of my work months and years later. And it's REALLY frustrating for me that most of what I put in the ground simply withers and dies here in Florida. If there's anyone here from this area, please let me know who you are so that I can carefully watch your posts and learn from your experience. Oh--and I especially love trees and would LOVE to learn how to cultivate them well.
Looking forward to getting to know all of you and learn from you.
Blessings,
Ranee
