    Hello everyone! I love to garden :-D I've just moved into a new place with a garden patch but nothing planted in it. I'm really looking forward to planning and planting my new garden.

    We had our first snowfall yesterday but the seed catalogues have started arriving and I'm dreaming of spring :stew1:

    Welcome to the Stew from the snowy, windy coast of mid-Norway! :stew2: Lucky you to have a brand new garden to plant up. I'm looking forward to seeing what you're planning to do and how it will turn out.

    Welcome northern neighbor. The planning stage is almost as much fun as growing the, and sometimes the more nerve racking part.

    Oh a new garden what fun!! Just think of all the wonderful things you can plant in it. Wish I could be there to give you a helping hand. Do let us see before, during and after photographs won't you?

    WELCOME to Gardenstew from a cold and snowy Scotland. :-D

    There's some areas of BC with soil that just begs for flowers, hope you got one of them!

    Thank you everyone for the warm welcome! Now I'm even more excited about my new garden :-D . I will be sure to keep you informed as my plans progress and I will post pics.

    It's so nice to see several different countries represented here. That is one of the reasons I decided to join Garden Stew.
