Hi all, i'm embracing gardening this year..

i have had my own house for 5 years now with 1 neglected garden ...
the garden has lots of different bushes and trees (not sure what they
are) and is enclosed, i have 3 dogs so nothing that will harm them..

the back garden is about 70ft long approx and the width of a house.. it
has a shed & coal house..

the front garden has a big drive way and the spare space is 10 foot by 4
foot.

Any ideas what i can do with these??

Stacey I expect you will be advised to look around your neighbourhood and
see what grows. Some plants like some soils some don't.

Possibly you don't know what the plants are in your garden, but if you take
a few pictures when they start to leaf up, or if you have any already, post
them as I have here http://www.myalbum.com/Album=MUKLG34Q for
everybody to see. As you will observe our gardens are only small and have
'evolved' over a long time, somewhere near 25 years in this case.

No I am not the gardener, my wife is the one and has over 50 years of
experience.

Good luck.

Mike
