Alice's Growing Delight
When I first started my gardening blog at Amateur Gardening I became despondent with the whole blog scene after attracting only minimal comments. That was until Alice found my site, commented on every post, linked to me and then lead others to visit my blog.
In the gardening blogosphere Alice's "A Growing Delight" is highly regarded. She has stacks of pictures on her blog from her own garden and others she's visited adding to the wealth of knowledge all us garden bloggers are growing in.
Alice often refers to her gardening husband, Richard, and I'm not sure whether I'm reading it right but it seems he's a little OCD about his veggie patch.
It's a great blog and if you haven't been there yet click on over to A Growing Delight.

I can second Stu's recommendation - you are really missing out if you don't visit Alice's A Growing Delight.

Oh, Stuart, you're making me blush with undeserved accolades. I must say I have enjoyed your blog right from the start - well, when I first found it, that is. I can't remember how I did find it, but I'm just glad I did.
One thing I've always appreciated about your blog is the simple advice that you give to new and learning gardeners. Sometimes those little tips from another gardener are easier to follow than any book, and I'm sure many people have benefitted from your postings.

No, I give up, Stuart. What is OCD, and is it terminal?

Thank you Alice. I'm a simple person so I've just tried to keep it as simple as I like it.
OCD - Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. I suffer from it to when others try to touch my garden, especially the lawn.

OCD - suits him to a T.
