About chrispaul97
I'm currently working on my first garden. A very small plot in the front of the house. My next garden will be in the back of the house and I am currently planning all the details now and will start tilling before autumn and plant my garlic first.
I am very new to gardening so any advice will be well received.
I like to find unusual coloured flowers for my yard. I'm looking for black roses. Do you know where I can get them?
