Why you should et gardening


It’s a new year and if you are new to gardening then everything you experience in your garden will seem daunting. Don’t be dismayed, here are a few tips that will keep your spirits up even if nothing seems to be going right.



Things wont always go right
Sometimes gardening doesn’t go to plan and you may not end up with those flourishing rose bushes you dreamt of (well not straight away). Being a good gardener doesn’t come naturally to everyone, you may need some practice before you get it right. Even if you are a green fingered god, you can’t predict the weather and only a real god could make something grow during a flood!

Ask for help          
Don’t struggle along on your own. If you are unsure or want some advice If you are like me, with a neighbour who’s garden is always in full bloom they will be more than happy to help you out. Experienced gardeners are full of knowledge that could take years to gain on your own, so don’t be shy. Asking garden centre staff and online gardening forums is also a good way to get gardening help.

Try something new
So you’ve got the green fingered bug and your garden is sprouting up nicely. You suddenly realise it looks like a daffodil farm because that is all you had the guts to grow. Don’t be afraid, try something new! Your garden is a chance to transform your home to somewhere more exotic. Try a new plant, tree or even growing fruit for something new.



Share your  experiences
Once you’ve gained some knowledge, don’t forget to share it and your experiences in the garden with others. 

The most important thing to remember is to enjoy yourself! Gardening can be truly rewarding, no matter what you plan to grow, seeing the results of your hard work will be the most encouraging reason to carry on gardening year after year.
