"I can't praise you all enough for your wonderful website. I signed up last week and have used it non-stop since. As a very rusty beginner gardener, I find it invaluable, extensive, extremely easy to navigate and not overwhelming. My only slight worry is that the increasing list of 'plants I want' is jeopardising all my spending plans for the spring. This could be the year that the garden has priority over the house!"
