I started my blog to help gardeners find useful information about gardening, to show off some of my photos, and maybe learn something myself along the way.
Here are 10 blogs that have caught my eye. I found them useful, entertaining and just plain fun. Stop over, visit them, then come back and let me know what you think. If you have a favorite garden blog that you read (or visit) on a regular basis I would love to hear about it. It's hard to get started in blogging and if there is a great new blog out there that needs some attention please let me know!

Its interesting I think most bloggers go through a phase of questioning why they blog and how to improve their blig to get more readers etc. I find that I have a core of blogs that I read regularly most of these are UK blogs and I have met quite a few of the bloggers and some of them are real friends now. But then I also dip into new blogs that come on the scene to see if they are for me, sometimes I add them to my blogroll but sometimes I decide that their content isnt for me. I generally dont read veg growing blogs as I'm not a veg grower, I dont like blogs that are loads of photos without much narrative. I like blogs where I get to know the blogger and their garden.
