Hi " I live in the South East of England and in my present house for nearly forty years (!!! that does not seem possible). We have a medium size garden which is mainlly flowers and lawn. but I have a small vegetable patch with two raised beds and two greenhouses. The greenhouses are for my pelargoniums (hence my user name). One greenhouse is 6' x 8', and th other 6' x 10'. I just love the amazingly varied geraniaceae family. I have mainly zonals " minature and dwarf, angels, a couple of regals, for sentimental reasons only (they are too big and blowsy for me) and some species. Oh, I also share half an allotment with my younger son. Regretably we have not done much on it this year " mainlly because I have been busy with other things and he is building an extension to his house. Hopefully next year we will be more organised.
Hello! Very envious of your perlagoniums only greenhouses,I have as many as I have space for, but could easily fill a couple of greenhouses with them given the chance! I like the uniques, miniatures and species...though I've struggled to keep some of those happy and have several scented varieties too.

Hi Gwen and welcome. I'm not really into these plants although I was given a gift of one recently and it has the most amazing colour of flowers, a deep pink with an even deeper pink on the petal. Don't know its name, but I am really looking after it.
