the garden diary

Welcome to the Rhino Garden Blog! We are part of a community of passionate gardeners sharing knowledge from horticultural experts and spreading the love of gardening. We hope to inspire and inform gardeners and nature lovers of all kinds. Whether you're sowing your first tomato seed, want to grow your own cut flowers for the dining table at home, just got your first greenhouse or are simply looking for some relaxing green-fingered reading, you'll find it all here. 

Alongside GYO guides, you'll also find real human stories from gardeners in our community and a holistic awareness of our place in the world, touching on environmentalism, wellbeing and an appreciation for the arts.
