I’ve found the family owned independent nurseries are more knowledgeable about the region and the plants that thrive in your area. Tell them the things you want out of a garden. It’s in their best interest to give you advice and encouragement to make you a repeat customer. Check sites like Pinterest and garden groups on social media for ideas. It’s difficult to start giving advice without knowing what you want in a garden. What do you want to plant? Where are planting it are questions that drive the advice given. Will it be container gardening, raised beds, regular gardening in plots/sections? Location, climate, hours of sun exposure makes a difference. 🪴🍀 ### Diamond rain Luna commented on 2026-01-19 Hello!!! I am new too want to be friends?
