and celebrate with nice chart summary of the 1st LJ year:
I would like to thank all GardenTenders and everybody involved in making this site such a fasci...

Never have done a blog before. Kind of intimidating, really. What to write?? We are moving shortly. West, again. Oregon this time. Leaving my home of many years, with the front lawn I was oh-so-close to finishing!! Tough to wrap my head around! Just found this great site, GardenTenders today, surfing. No pics this way (cell), but that will be remedied. . . .eventually!! Can’t wait! Thanks to all who welcomed a newbie.

Since it was hard to find our previous Awards and Challenges, I’ve created new contests tab in main navigation. It links to the new contests page where you can see all information together with the corresponding dates.
Enjoy!

Let me introduce another special new feature on our GT site. After some request from GardenTenders I’ve decided to add a feature, which allows you to choose hardiness zone you live in and it will be displayed below stats on your member card. Simply go to “My Home”, then click on “Edit My Profile” and you’ll see option “Hardiness Zone” where you can choose your zone. For those, who don’t know what the heck the Hardiness Zone is, just click...
