Welcome to gardenlife

Who am I?
Having recently moved on from the' buy them and kill them school of gardening', and qualified as a trained gardener, my new goal in life is to put my money where my mouth is and start plantkeeping proper. I will be blogging regularly about the trials and tribulations of finding paid work (and trying not to wreck someones pride and joy), and looking back on the horrors of being a student at a prestigious gardening school, where I was the only one who didn't have an estate in the country!
As a complete plant nerd I look forward to sharing profiles of special plants and also writing about the goings on at the allotment, the plot I took over three years ago, which is in worse condition now of course.
Please join me if you stumble across these pages..all like minded, hapless but well-intentioned gardeners welcome!
