Welcome to Doug Greens Garden
Welcome to my gardening website - where I review plants and products, run gardening courses for readers and generally have a great time sharing my gardening "stuff".
I'm Doug Green, a 30-year nursery veteran, award-winning book author, and (I'm told) :-) a good gardener who shares a ton of stuff with readers to help them learn to garden better.
There are over 6000 pages of information on these sites - and you can find a lot either through the search boxes on the top right of each page.

Finally, you're going to find Question and Answer forms as well as
reader-submissions forms on almost every page throughout the site where
you can either ask questions, upload pictures or help other gardeners.
You
can sign up for updates to all the major content areas (top right hand
box) , sign up for the gardening newsletter, watch gardening videos or
browse and find the things that interest you.
Thanks for visiting and sharing your time with me - I hope I can help you be a better gardener and answer your questions.
Doug
p.s.
the site is being rebuilt and you may notice some differences in page
navigation between pages as I add pictures and search capacity to every
page.

"When I married Mr. Loudon, it is scarcely possible to imagine a person more completely ignorant than I was, of every thing relating to plants and gardening; and, as may be easily imagined, I found every one about me so well acquainted with the subject, that I was soon heartily ashamed of my ignorance. My husband, of course, was quite anxious to teach me as I was to learn, and it is the result of his instructions that I now (after ten years experience of their efficacy) wish to make public for the benefit of others."

Reviews from Doug's Experience

Books Hard as it may be to believe, I have way too many gardening books for the average person. Luckily I admit to my addiction. :-)

Gardens I've visited many more good gardens than I have uploaded and reviewed here but again, that's on the to-do list

Tools I want only the best tools that work and last. Here's what I really think

Products I test all kinds of things in the garden - some I buy, some are sent to me for testing. Here are the results.

Plant Reviews

Annuals There are some wonderful plants on the market and I'm uploading my test plot results as fast as I can now.

Perennials Too many perennials turn out to be duds. I ask readers to help me review good perennials too.

Shrubs These are backbone plants and you deserve nothing but the best. I look at a variety of shrubs I'm planting and review them for you.
