"When the world wearies and society ceases to satisfy there's always the garden." -- William Affleck
Come join us in the garden where, here in southern California, almost every day is a good gardening day. This page describes the highlights of what I have learned during the last decade or so of playing in the garden. Have fun, and don't be afraid to make mistakes! Often, they are the best teacher.
Descriptions and some pictures of plants in our garden. The descriptions are based on our personal experience with these plants in a mild-winter zone in southern California.
Do you know your gardening zone? Do you ask "Huh? What's a zone?" Learn about the different zone systems and links to more about them.
Learn about improving your soil with less effort and big rewards. All it takes is patience. And any real gardener has patience... right?
Gardening in southern California has its unexpected challenges... like, never getting that long winter break our friends in the frigid north get every year. Our long growing season provides endless opportunities and discoveries in the garden. Check out my suggestions and resources about gardening in southern California, and California gardening in general.
There is no end to the gardening resources on the internet. These are the ones I visit most often, including a look at the funny side of gardening.
