    Greetings from Austin, Texas, where it's rained for 40 days and 40 nights (or it seems like that) and we are now finally back to our normal HOT summer days with limitless sunshine. I just started my own garden blog last week and love being connected to other garden bloggers -- getting answers to my questions and tips and information from the real experts.

    Hi there Diana. We have quite a few Texans here at The Stew so you'll feel right at home.

    WELCOME.

    Hi Diana, a big welcome to GardenStew. Garden blogs make great reading, is there nothing gardeners cannot do ;)

    In Sweden we are starting to get the warm weather back also after a wet summer. Looks like it is trying to squeeze some sunshine in before the Autumn.

    Hello Diana from a Texan about 120 miles from Austin. So glad to have another water logged Texan here.

    Hi Diane, welcome to the Stew from north Texas, Carrollton to be exact.
    Glad you joined us.

    Yep, the water faucet in the sky has been turned off for us too, very few clouds in the sky and way too much sunshine for my liking. Time for me to hibernate.

    Howdy from out in West Texas - South Plains to be exact. There are several Texans on this site already, but our areas are so diverse, I bet we have much different flora & issues in our gardens.

    Texan too

    Hey, welcome. I am from North Texas. I get down your way often as I have a son that lives in Lampasas.

    Welcome from Washington, I'd wondered where we'd misplaced our rain! Only just became enlightened that you Tx gardeners aren't all wrestling blooms out of the sand!
