    Greetings everyone! I'm following the starter pack's recommendation and introducing myself to everyone.

    I'm from central Illinois. My main interests are water gardens, landscaping, wild gardens and roses.

    Just wanted to say a friendly hello to everyone :)

    Thanks dooley for the kind greeting. Yes, Springfield is where I am in fact. Love this forum ... only wish I had found it early spring instead of late summer!

    Thanks again everyone. Such a great resource here! Frank - Thanks! the variety of forums and varying topics is great! I'm enjoying going through them. Both you and Toni mentioned posting photos. Is there a separate or preferred forums to do this, or just intersperse them into a post as it pertains?

    Hello Wannabe! Nice to have a fellow neighbor here!

    Hello again to everyone else. Thanks again for the great welcoming!

    Normally it's absolutely fine to post a photo into any topic if it is needed to show something. If you want to start a topic for the basis of just showing photos however then the Member's Gallery is the forum for you :)

    Here's how to post photos:
