Hi all,
Thought I would join up as we are going to be buying a new house shortly on the Costa Blanca in Spain and as the garden to the house has been neglected a bit we will need to rejuvenate it.
Seeing as we have rented up to now this is the first time we will have control of exactly what we can do which has us quite excited but at the same time means we will probably need all sorts of different advice.
Being originally from Australia it is quite nice to see a number of familiar plants planted here in Spain as I guess the climate is well suited to it so one area of info I hope to find is about Australian natives that I can plant in my garden here. Another area too would be Spanish natives.
Another thing that I have noticed living here is that it is extremely dry for most of the year so things like drought resistance and low water gardening springs to mind.
Any way I look forward to gaining some new knowledge and participating in the forum, any questions just ask!
