Hello from Montana

[Shnicken]

Hi everyone, just wanted to introduce myself. 34 male here from beautiful Montana, zone 4b. Recently discovering that gardening/growing things is a major passion for me, however that being said I'm still learning so expect lots of questions.

Bonjour, @Shnicken! When you mention gardening, are you referring to vegetables and flowers both?

 

[Shnicken]

Referring to both, fruit as well.

@Shnicken, What flowers are you interested in?

Any and all, I currently have a 20'x30" bulb bed that consists of Tulips, daffodils, lillies, rain lillies and hyacinth. I have a 6x3' raised bed that I'm doing all a sunflower mix this year. I also have multiple clematis, a floribunda and a tea rose, an azalea and a dwarf Korean Lilac. I also have the usual suspect annuals all over the place, petunias, violas, Hollyhock, snapdragons, verbena , marigolds, etc.

The bulb bed was planted last fall and everything has bloomed and gone besides the lilies which are just now starting to bloom. It was a damn good show though, probably the best I have ever done with flowers. I plan on planting the 6x3' with more bulbs this fall.

@Shnicken, Congratulations on your Spring flowers!

Thank you, hoping to get all the new stuff to thrive, Azalea is already blooming and I'm absolutely in love with it, will definitely be adding more to the collection next year.
