I was thrilled to receive an email yesterday telling us that A Pentland Garden has been relisted in Vuelio’s Top 10 UK Gardening Blogs this year (it’s even snuck up a couple of places!)

I’ve had a wonderful time browsing the others from this list, whether they be galloping, thirsty, patient, frustrated or cynical, they all have great sites and I’ve subscribed to them all!
- The Patient Gardener
- The Frustrated Gardener
- the blackberry garden
- Real Men Sow (they deserve a prize for the name alone!)
- A Pentland Garden
- The Cynical Gardener
- The Middle-sized garden
- The Galloping Gardener
- Two Thirsty Gardeners
- Veg Plotting
Here’s the 2015 list in case you were interested, a number of familiar names but a few completely new ones too!
It was really lovely to receive an email this week telling us that our Pentland Garden Diary has been listed in magazine.co.uk’s Top UK Gardening Bloggers List for 2016. Amazing to see our humble journal being amongst some of the country’s gardening elite.

On top of last year’s listing in Vuelio’s Top 10 UK Gardening Blogs it’s really quite astonishing. A big thank you to anyone who’s ever stopped by and hopefully you’ll continue to enjoy our, more grubby than green, fingered journey.
I was more than a little surprised, but also dead chuffed, to receive an email yesterday saying that A Pentland Garden Diary has been listed as one of the UK’s top gardening blogs – coming in at number 7.

I have no idea how my little garden diary has been picked up but it was a lovely surprise. I now need to go and check out all the other interesting looking ones on the list.
