		<description>The most influential to me personally were Kathy Purdy at Cold Climate and MSS at Zanthan Gardens. However I started blogging long ago when those two were among the few out there. I still they are among the best and the first to come to mind when I think “garden blogger.”

At the time Pam at Digging and Carol at May Dreams were not yet on the radar screen. However they have had a big influence on me too; mostly by showing how garden blogging could be a social experience as well as a journalistic exercise.

Nowadays there are so many good garden bloggers it is impossible to keep up with them. I think newer bloggers, and those who are still discovering blogs would have a different sense of who is influential.</description>

		<description>Hi Robin, this was an interesting question that made people think.  I appreciate very much all the bloggers you mentioned, for we are a group helping each other, not one leader, although Pam influenced me and helped me get started blogging.  I want to thank Tina for her kind words too, she is influential in her own right.  Thanks for the link love and your hard work in the blogging community, Robin!
