Hi all,
like to introduce myself.
I'm being a German transplant to USA, live now in Oregon in the Willamette Valley area. Great for Gardening, especially Perennials and shrubbery. I have moved in the last 20 years to so many climate zones, that soon I will have tried them all (Aside the really cold US zones, with very short gardening seasons)
that wouldn't be for me.
Makes gardening very much interesting, having to relearn everything, just after you got the hang of it were you lived last.
so since 4 years I'm in Oregon. Like it here, being German I don't think it rains too much here, contrary what many think. Sommers are completly dry here. Days are warm, but not to warm. Nights are more on the cool side. Sometimes this gives trouble with the heat loving veggies. Anyhow, it is a nice change from North Carolina, where it was way to hot and steamy for me.
I do mainly mixed garden beds, I'm working on redoing my new garden and then I have a large vegetable garden.
I found the IG through searching for Gardening software. So far I like it.
You probably won't find me too often on the forum. I am usually far to busy to chat online. With homeschooling my boys, working the garden, playing with the garden software and the Living cookbook software, plus all the other things I'm doing, I don't think I will find the time very often.
Anyway, I hope to learn some good tricks for using the IG on this forum, and maybe learning more gardening
greetings
Isabell
