    Hey all. So uhm, let's see. I'm 28, engaged, and my fiancee and I recently purchased our first home a bit less than a year ago. Since we now have a yard we're getting into gardening a bit.

    I'm an amateur but that's why sites like this exist, I guess.

    That's about all I can think about! Anyway, thanks for the site. It looks like a cool community.

    Welcome again Jesse.
    There is a lot of helpful info for beginners here and if you can't find an answer you are looking for just ask.

    Since you have mastered posting photos here, we would like to see what your garden looks like...or where you are starting your gardening fun.

    Thanks - maybe I can take some shots tonight. I'm not sure I'd call what we have a "garden" yet. It's a few Hibiscus (one of which is sick!), a few gardenias, a palm, and some Encore Azaleas.

    Actually, one of the things I'll probably end up doing is asking for advice on how to "full in" my mostly empty garden area.

    Welcome to GardenStew Jesse, no matter how big your garden or collection is you are still very much encouraged to participate. We can all learn a little from each other :D

    Great to have another Texan aboard.
