Every question you send to Gardenline must include a significant amount of information.
How we use your information:
- Your personal information such as your name, contact information and location is never shared with anyone.

You will not be able to submit photos when you submit your question.
Photos are extremely helpful. If we need photos, we will contact you by email with instructions about how to send them. Tips for submitting good photos:
- Use high resolution photos so that we can zoom in to see detail. (maximum size of 5MB each)
- Photos should be in focus.
- Send a maximum of 5 photos.
- For small subjects such as insects or native plants, it helps to include an object in the photo such as a ruler, coin or pen to give an indication of scale.
