Hi, my name is (Bri)gitte. I'm 43 and live in Holland.
I'm hoping to start a garden where butterflies, birds and other bugs and animals want to come and stay.
This is very difficult for me, because since about ten years I have Agorafobia (I get pannic attacks when I go outside), so sometimes I'm not even able to go out into my garden at all. Let alone that I can go to stores or gardencentres etc.
That's why I now am looking into gardening from seeds. I don't have a greenhouse or anything like that, so I'll mostly need seeds that can be sown strait into the ground, and only a few from special plants I want to have which I can sow in a little tray on the windowsill.
I've already tried to read and find out as much as I could from books and later the internet, but I never did any REAL gardening before, except a bit of pruning every year -when I was able to - and so on.
So I will be very grateful for ANY help and/or information on how to, when to, where to and which seeds to use and so on.

Thanks!

Love Gitte
