Have I got this translation correct? I would like to say "Welcome to my Garden' in Italian. . I am placing a sign at the gate to my garden and was unsure of my weeny two semester college understanding of the language!
I keep thinking it should read benvenuti, but cannot recall the grammar rule for this phrase.

I am just beginning to learn Italian. I can't help you, but I want to know too.
It is correct, but you're using the male gender singular.
Best would be:
Benvenuti nel mio giardino.
(This way every one, not only males, are welcome)
But, if ithe sign is done, I wouldn't change it. It's completely normal usage.
