E-Gardening

My recent column in Garden & Greenhouse is about e-gardening and the many resources that exist in the virtual garden known as the Internet. Rife with potential and ideas, the Internet is my proverbial garden during the melancholy days of winter. Collectively my column and this post will do nothing to suffice for the trove of information that exists but here are some additional resources that I thought you might find helpful:

Blogs:
Kathy Purdy of ColdClimateGardening.com has been kind enough to compile a list of garden blogs on the Internet. It can be found here. Enough said; it's an exhaustive listing.

Favorite plant sources:
Here are a few that if you haven't already checked out, you should.
Plant Delights Nursery
Seneca Hill Perennials
Arrowhead Alpines
LaPorte Avenue Nursery

Odyssey Bulbs
Sunshine Farm & Gardens
Bluestone Perennials

In no particular order, some worthy plant specialist organizations include:
American Iris Society
American Hosta Society

Happy e-gardening! If you stumble across additional resources that you think should be mentioned, drop me an email and I'll post them here.
