Add your show or club events

The great thing about the Landscape Juice Network is the flexibility of it.



You can blog about a project or add photographs to a personal album. Maybe you would like to discuss a topic that is important to you in the forum and of course you can make friends and network with potential business associates.



The other great thing, and I have tried to do this on Landscape Juice, is upload gardening events from across the… Continue

Uploading a members photo

Thank you to Craig for his blog post about uploading photographs.



It would be cool if you considered adding a members photo too. It doesn't matter if you are a bit shy, add a picture of a project or a company logo, it matters not. And, remember, am about most of the time so if you need any help, just shout.

Adding an image to a story

Phil has asked me to put together a couple of article about some of the features and tools built into the network that might not be too obvious.



Naturally considering gardens are something to be looked at, I though I'd start with getting the best out of the image options available to you.



If you want to add a photograph or image to a story you write then you can, but a couple of pointers might help.…

Networking isn't just a social thing

There are many reasons for visiting a forum or network and of course a blog.



You may just enjoy reading what the author has to say on a blog and you may just like that sense of community on a forum or network.



For some people who join a community, the novelty wears off and they move on to something new. However, there is a very serious side to a community that is often overlooked.



The new friendships are one thing but the possibilities to gain business or pass… Continue

Thinking of planting your tender bedding? - It might pay to read this first

Frost The weather is getting a little warmer and the days are starting to get to respectable lengths.



Even the Oak trees - usually the last out - are stirring into life and it is time to plant out the summer bedding - or is it?



I have written about 'Saints de Glace' and a period of May when winter takes one last icy bite and throws the chill of winter back into the garden.

Virginia Creeper - advice needed

I have received an email from Chris who is having trouble with his Virginia Creeper.



"Hello, I purchased two plants 5 years ago and planted them some distance apart up against the wall of the house.



I considered this to be an ideal setting, the wall is brick and the aspect is SW. Predictably, a period of time elapsed before the runners became really active, and at this point my expectation was that they would begin to take advantage of the wall.



The runners made… Continue

Where do you blog from

Frost When you are talking to someone on the telephone, do you try and imagine there that person is and what their surroundings are like?



If I am on a website or blog, I also try and imagine where the person who is blogging works from, and, iIf you are as nosey as me, you might wish to know what my little cyber world is like.



Frost I have taken a couple of shots this evening. One of them is my desk with all the tools of the trade and the other is of the view… Continue

Where to find your friends and messages

If, like me, you are still getting to grips with the functions on the network, you may find it useful to know that your friends, and your personal messages, can be found in the top left hand corner.

You will notice your name or handle with a picture (if you have added one) with an icon of an envelope and a buddy.

Pressing each one will explode the top pane and show a list of messages (read and unread) or all the icons of the people you have selected as friends.

What do you have on your shopping list this weekend?

Logo_small_top_stgeorge2 With the weather set give most of the UK a blissful weekend, garden centres will hopefully enjoy a good run at the tills.



After all, garden centres still have employees to pay so fingers crossed there will be an improvement.



I have added a post on Landscape Juice enquiring what might be on the shopping list at the garden centre.



What about you, are you planning to spend or save… Continue
