Hello all! My name is Leah and I am pretty stoked about finding a gardening forum. I have belonged to several forums over the years but this is my first stab at a home/garden one. If I tend to get overzealous and post like crazy at first please be patient with me, I'm just excited.
I have always had a passion for gardening, it was something my mother and I shared while I was growing up. Ever since I was a kid I wanted a huge and fantastic garden and now I can finally begin creating it. My husband and I have just recently (well...8 months ago) purchased our first home. The main reason I love it so much is that the yard is huge, the soil is fantastic and it practically a blank canvas. There was some minimal landscaping done and while the style may appeal to others I found it lackluster. So I have begun tearing out some of the old and slowly implementing my own. Due to time/money restrictions I am going slowly and plan to only really focus on one spot this season, the shade garden along the back fence. I'll start another topic in a more appropriate place as I have tons of questions for you guys, but that is where I stand at the moment.
Thanks in advance for putting up with me!!!
