Syntagma Media is tickled pink green to announce our first website firmly embedded in the soil.

Green Gardening with Douglas Green (even the name fits) is all about … well, Douglas tells it better than I can :

Blogs are fun things — you can write what suits you and publish it right away - post pictures and generally share interesting bits of information with other gardeners.

I’ve been doing this sharing in various ways for most of my gardening life. Both in my own nursery where I used to run seminars and through my radio, television and writing work. The Internet simply lets us write in a more direct way to our readers.

Now I’m a full time garden writer — working on a wide range of magazine, book and Internet writing — that is when I’m not out building new gardens and trialing new plants. (My kids have a case of beer bet on how long it will take me to completely remove all the grass from the front lawn) .

This blog is about new plants, new environmentally sound techniques and almost anything that crosses my desk or grows in my garden that I’d like to share with you.
