Hello, Mid-South gardeners. I'm really excited to be your new regional host. Although the Upper South is home for me, I lived in the Mid-South for a few years and Dear Hubby is from there and still has lots of family living there, so I'm pretty familiar with the region.

I hope you will all help me welcome any new Mid-South members to the regional forum, and please keep posting your photos and updates of your fall gardens.

I welcome any suggestions to make the regional forum even better, and I hope you all will set me straight if I get things wrong.

Hi LeAnn,

I'm sure you will do a great job.

I always thought I was mid-atlantic, but according to this I'm mid-south, so I'm learning more every day! I'm sure I'll be asking LOTS of questions that you can help me with.

Thanks, Betty. I don't have all the answers, but there is usually someone on the forum who can help so never be afraid to ask.

I know what you mean about regional boundaries. When I took the job as regional host I double-checked to make certain I knew exactly what area was included in the Mid-South. When I googled for Mid-South I found several sites with different boundaries for that region - some were VERY different. I believe the ones the forum uses are from the National Gardening Association. (Someone please correct me if that's wrong).

We use the National Gardening Association's delineations, yes. I'm right on the border between Upper South and Mid-Atlantic, myself. There are so many micro-climates and seasonal variations, though, that I've found great ideas for my own garden by learning about other regions!

LeAnn,
Thanks for mentioning the Mid-South forum. I hear that 'great climates grow alike'..... or was that 'great minds................ awwww never mind.
