    Hi
    I have mentioned my location in Ontario as southern because any Ontarian knows it makes a huge difference in what I can grow in my garden. I moved here from the Canadian prairies a few years ago and was astounded at the wonderful things that will grow here in this part of the country. In the prairies, where I grew up, I remember learning in school that the climate of the city I lived in had a winter climate identical to that of Siberia! Not exactly tropical. Even as a kid I was horrified.
    Living here makes me think I have discovered a bit of gardening paradise. :)

    Hello from Michigan, newgrowth! Can't say as that I've ever been to Ontario, but it sounds lovely! I'm sure you will find answers to all of your gardening questions as well as a number of good friends along the way. Welcome!

    Welcome to GardenStew newgrowth, sounds like you have settled in a gardening haven. It would be great to possibly get a photographic garden tour sometime ;)

    You will love it here!
