Garden and greenhouse website adds new topics

Garden and greenhouse fans may be interested to hear the latest news from a horticulture website.

PerennialFlowerGardening.com has now included pages on butterfly garden plants, identifying pests and winter container gardening.

The online community and blog already offers growing and landscaping tips, but will now include extra features on the above topics.

Gardeners will find hints on how to attract butterflies to their green space or glasshouse by choosing specific plants.

They can also access information on how to tell which nuisance is causing damage to plants – helping distinguish aphids from mealybugs.

Meanwhile, the third new topic will look at which plants grow best in the colder months, with specific attention to those able to grow in containers.

The website was launched in March this year and has built up a following through its online community and message board.

In other news a garden guide was released last month for the Nintendo DS.
