Hi everyone!! Jolene here!! It is great to find such a useful place to find information and communicate with others about gardening. I don't have a lot of expertise and probably will have more questions then knowledge to share. My gardening consists of a variety of houseplants, tropical, bamboo, and orchids. I have just recently gotten into orchids and have lots of questions arising from this new addtion to my home.
I live in Calgary, Alberta, Canada!! So as you know we do have lots of change in temperature which even affects the quality of my indoor plants!!
Have a great day and all Canadians have a wonderful Canada Day on July 1!!!!!
....or should I say, Welcome Neighbour! When I joined here I was looking for some particular plants to grow (both indoors and outdoors) in our wonderful Canadian weather
Lucky for us... there were tons of people here to help answer questions and I have a ton of suggestions for our Zone 3 if your interested.
You'll enjoy your time here and you'll always learn something new. See you around, eh?!
