Here are some gardening sites where you can indulge your senses, order some seeds and plants, and refresh your winter spirits with plans for your spring garden.

National Gardening

The National Gardening Association site offers in-depth articles on a wide range of topics, with lush photographs. With a goal of providing good information for every day gardening, the site also features kids gardening and recipes. The pages are easy to navigate and the site loads quickly - you can learn a lot just clicking around.

Organic Gardening

This is the site for Organic Gardening magazine, and they don't want you to forget it. If you wade through all the promotion, though, you'll find a great archive filled with good suggestions for your all-natural home garden.

FAST! This site loads like lightening, so if you want to get gardening advice, find an arboretum in your area, order seeds, exchange ideas with other gardeners, start a community garden or enter a gardening contest, quickly - this is the place.

And once you have some good ideas, find a local garden center in our Local Web Directory!
