So we have now completed the first phase of The Garden Wall functionality.

You can now:

We have now added the My Garden link and the ability to enter details about your garden.

The new content type of 'Garden Location' is available from the 'Create Content' menu.  This allows you to specify a location in your garden; describe that location and then create content associated with it.

The next big thing will be the 'My Plants' feature that will allow you to keep details of the specific plants in the various locations in your garden.

Watch this space.

The Garden Wall  ... Take a  Look

The Plant Finder functionality is now Live.  This gives you the ability to search for plants by either their botanical name or their common name.  You can also filter the search by Taxa type, that is you can look specifically for Cultivars rather than species.

This is just the start.  we will be extending the search functionality to allow you to filter by a large number of plant characteristics and microclimate preferences.

You will have to wait a bit for the all singing and dancing version that allows you to search plants other users are growing.

Welcome to The Garden Wall.  The site is finally up in the big bad world.

This has been a long time in the making, I have been gently (and sometimes not so gently) working on this for two and a half years. Evenings, weekends, holidays ... train rides ... anywhere where I might otherwise have been reading a book. 

So this is the first Phase of the site.  I need to do some work on the search screen ... like write it ... and that is phase one complete.
