Goedemorgen everyone!

I just signed up here yesterday, and so far so good :D I'm liking this forum a lot, I can tell I will learn so much more about plant care. I am currently living in Noord-Holland, and I am starting to get my hand into gardening again. It seems this is the right place for that, almost all the houses here have plants and the Dutch seem to take so much pride in their gardening skills.

I used to do gardening when I was younger, mostly potted plants, but I stopped after a while. So my knowledge is rusty at best. I am starting again... all thanks to a nice kitchen herbs starters set I bought at the local ''Action'' (will show you the magnificent results - not bragging, it's just I had never really been able to grow anything from seed before, so to me it's totally wicked!).

We got 3 plants (my husband and I) from the Aldi just 2 weeks ago (might need id help for 1 of them). Can't wait to go to ''De Boet'' (huge gardening store in the Netherlands) and maybe get more plants later. They sell so many incredibly delightful things over there, that place is definitely a gardener's wet dream :love:

Anyways, that is all for now, pleased to to meet you all :)(y)


Have a great day and ''Tot ziens''

Hi Sefarad, It is nice that you joined us. Welcome. I am near the port of Dover in the UK, and see many campers who also come from the Netherlands.....as do many of the plants in our gardens nowadays :)
