You may have noticed The Blotanical Blog Site logo on my blog.
I've spent way too much time looking at the gardening blogs on this site but it becomes a bit compulsive. There are so many interesting gardeners around and many of their sites are imaginative and beautifully crafted. The photography in particular is of a very high standard. I'm still trying to focus and stop camera shake!
The sites are also full of information and cover so many more subjects than gardening. I particularly like the blogs that diversify into nature and cooking. And the ones I can relate to because of similar garden experiences such as hens escaping, compost making and lots of little idiosyncrasies that gardeners share. It's also interesting to see how much variation there is in methods of gardening, plants grown and of course, the weather!
However I have found it complicated to navigate as a site. Most folk want to make contact with other gardeners and share experiences and I find it a bit frustrating working it out. . It takes up a lot of time to sift through the blogs, read at least one post, pick the post, decide whether you want the blog or bloggist as a favourite. You can see why it might become all consuming. And the garden calls...
You do not even have to have a garden or a blog. If you are interested in all things gardening have a look at the Blotanical site. Look out for the logo....
