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 bottom of each page or general areas using the "more content" button on the top of the page.
Finally, you're going to find Q&A forms as well as reader-submissions forms scattered 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, 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
