seilMI said:The GardenBuddies site was closed down this week. We are all very sad but some of us do want to stay in contact. So I'm starting this thread here in the hopes that we can all still get together and share our gardens and news about what we've been up to.
I joined here a few years ago and it has been a great experience. There is so much information and I've met so many new friends. Please explore the site. I'm sure you will find many topics of interest to you. In the meantime we can all gather here and keep in touch!
Roelie said:OH I will try. I am Roelie live in Holland had first a garden with all kind of flowers and later many Clematis . Was near Debby in the Silverstar vinery got hearttroubles and went home came in the hospital been operated and in stead of three weeks I was half an year on travel . Was years a member near Garden buddies and now a member here for a year but thought it was only for the newsletter and hope I come in. If I later on see this mail it is a success
Must think on my first days on GB I had so many highlights that were the writing mistakes I made there they gave a red line. I am two days searching everywhere what is here and have to learn a lot but if it is dry and not so stormy I will have a look for pictures of my helleborus

hand toss in the garden beds and use the drop spreader for the lawn. What fun!!

We've naturalized several varieties of crocuses in our back yard. They're always our first blooms of the year, and keep up the show for about a month. The only downside is that we don't mow that part of the yard until the foliage dies back, so by the time we do mow it's like making hay. These photos were taken 2021-03-11.

They are lovely David.
