A Gardeners Forum Forums Members History Forum Life 2004 I have come to Learn

Well I have a huge amount of hobbies but one of my favorite (don’t tell my other male friends) is working in the Garden! I am nowhere near a pro and I think I have killed or maimed more plants in my learning then I would like to say! But I still hang in there and garden away!

I have a vary stressful job so I like to do things that I don’t have to stress over so I figured gardening would be just the thing! Well I was wrong I stress over the garden quite a bit but I think working in it helps so it all comes out even. We have a 2 Acre piece of property and lots and lots of trees everything from Live Oak, Hickory, Elm to Mimosa and the dreaded Chinaberry tree.

Like I said I have a lot of hobbies I buy and sell on eBay a lot and I collect and sell Toys! Yes I am going thru my middle age crises early! I am an Artist so I draw, Paint and Work in clay (it also comes in handy when I need to draw my garden plans and layouts. I hope I can learn some more here on the forum and hopefully raise the mortality rate on my plants!

OH MY

Glad to have you onboard!!! I think you will give the site a new spin.

Thanks for the wonderful welcome! yes I meant lower by all means lower I can’t stand any more plant funerals! I want plant markers not plant tombstones!!!

I like the name catlover I to am a catlover (again don’t tell my male friends) I have a Russian blue as an inside cat and she is the Tops! (Don’t tell her she will just get a big head)! We also have 5 cats outside to plus one Dog and I have a sugar glider in my office (I work at home so I can take care of it as it needs lots of attention)!

Well I don’t know how much of a spin I will put on things (I hope no one gets dizzy) but I just know I plan on learning a lot and hope I can share a few things to!

Hello and welcome!
It's strange, it seems to be the males of my family that inherited the gardening gean. I think my great, great grandparents were farmers that might be it. I think I'm the type of person who goes though quarter life criseses so all is forgiven! I like the quote, I'm lucky enough to have two of the three in one. It'd be kind of neat to have a bath tub in my room! It would help keep the humidity up! Hope you enjoy this site as much as I've been!

By the way the great gardener under my name is a default setting I'm just starting too! By the way whats a suger glider?

Sugar Gliders here is what they are and they make great pets!

I like mine almost as much as my cat!

Oh, my gosh, those are the most fascinating little things I've ever seen. How does your sugarglider get along with your indoor cat???

Well Jillie the Sugar Glider is in its own little (or big in this case) cage so the cat does not get near it. they really have not crossed paths so all stays well in the house.

The sugar Glider makes a great pet just requires a lot of my time.

Hello! Welcome!!



I, too, am fairly new to this wonderful place. The people here are soo nice and helpful. They told me what my "freak of nature" vine is that is growing on my front lattice (turns out to be a flower!!), figured out what the weird bugs are that keep coming into my house (which my 3 cats just love to hunt down and eat ) haha...just kidding, he knows. We're taking it to his mom this weekend! LOL

Anyways...welcome, welcome, welcome!!!

Hello and welcome steelwoolghandi! It sounds like you should fit right in to our little community. I didn't know you could have a sugar glider as a pet. What a neat animal. What's her name?

I hope you come back often and chat with us. We have all levels of gardeners and everyone is super friendly. We love to help and chat and research stuff and chat some more....

my Sugar Glider's name is Zoe and they are allowed pets in the US. Thanks for the Welcome I am looking forward to the chating! If its one thing I need to do is learn more about gardening (I go back to the tombstone thing)! humm maybe they will work as steping stones?
