I began gardening in North Carolina just a few years ago. I have only a little previous experience dabbling in dirt (I grew mainly tomatoes in Boston back in 1988, thereabouts). We moved to this place in Burlington, North Carolina in March of 2002. The house is an old one (1930s) on the top of a hill in a usually quiet neighborhood.
The yard had been long neglected when we purchased the place, so the first couple of years were spent pulling overgrown ivy off of trees and hacking back thorny thickets of wild raspberries. Now I've been creating flower beds and planting bushes for a little bit and am hoping to organize and record some of it all here. The arrival of spring in the North Carolina Piedmont seems like a good place to start.
