Hi Fern – I signed up for Folia and haven’t quite made my way around the site yet, but I did register a couple of my new plantings in my “journal”. As soon as I figure out how to buddy people I will add you.

That might be one of the very few practical gardening sites I’ve seen in a while Ms. Fern. I just wrote about gardening resolutions and one of them was to keep a better gardening journal. I think I might recommend My Folia to my readers.

Thanks for the update on Folia – and happy new year.

If you want to see an old school approach to journaling, pop over and have a look at my new year’s project – publishing my paper journal started in 1989.

Many different ways to approach the task and looks like Folia makes it dead easy. Good luck with your resolution.

OH NO! The site that I have been dreaming about actually exists! I became an addict to LibraryThing last year because I was able to document my library and keep track of all of the books I was reading. I decided there needed to be a similar site where I could keep track of what plants I have, when I got them, etc. I foresee a huge amount of my time going to Folia now.
Thanks for pointing it out!

Hi Fern, Happy New Year.

Thanks for posting about Folia, this is going to be one New Years Resolution that I will definitely look into. I have bookmarked the site, and will go back and peruse it when I have a little time.

It looks very interesting, and thanks for bringing it to my attention.
