    I tripped over this forum doing research and I am glad I came upon it. Folks from around the world. I received and Associate's degree in horticulture and transferred to UGA's School of Environmental Design. I raise groundcovers in my backyard primarily by division or layering but also enjoy raising plants from seeds sown naturally. Lots of dogwoods and redbuds. I have a blog site that helps homeowners to increase the size their landscape beds inexpensively, and if I could find a good program then teach basic design. Thanks!

    Welcome to the Stew from East Texas. I love Charlotte because it reminds me so much of East Texas. Pine trees and red clay ;)
