Favorite Gardening Links
Below are some of my favorite websites, great resources for anyone interested in gardening:
| The fascinating history behind the Huntington Gardens and the tremendous variety of plants there from every corner of the world make it well worth the price of admission. | |
| Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Gardens... the largest botanic garden devoted solely to California native plants. Worth a visit in the spring to see the Ceanothus (California lilacs) in bloom. | |
| Las Pilitas Nursery... tons of valuable info and photos of native plants, wildflowers, birds, etc. | |
| California Native Plant Society... CNPS is a great organization that promotes conservation, education, and preservation of our state's native flora. | |
| Organic Gardening Magazine... the ultimate gardening magazine with a wealth of information on many topics. | |
| National Gardening Association... Tons of info on gardening, cooking, region-by-region tips and advice, plus a very comprehensive plant library. | |
| Southern California Wildflowers... great photos! Peruse this site if you'd like to be able to identify wildflowers you see growing in the hills and on the hiking trail. | |
| Descanso Gardens... Tours, classes, plant sales, activities for the whole family. |
