An Eclectic Collection

I have been collecting books since I joined the Book of the Month Club as a teenager. Collecting is the operative word here, since I don’t always read (completely) all that I collect. To illustrate that I am no Johnny-come-lately to gardening, one of my Club acquisitions was Thalassa Cruso’s “To Everything There Is a Season”, hot off the press in 1973.

The trouble with books is that they tend to sit, forgotten, on shelves. There is no search facility for my library, so when I need information I default to the internet. By bringing these resources together on one (web) page, I hope to remind myself to get away from my computer and to sit down with a book. (I know, a bit paradoxical, that)

Of course, since the dawn of the http://newage, I have also been collecting websites. If a site is useful, I’ll drag the link onto my desktop, and or add it to my Bookmark Buddy. There’s a huge list by now, and not all so well organized. So, those that are truly important to my native gardening, I commit to adding them here – mostly for my sake.

As everywhere in this website, I welcome your comments and suggestions. You can contribute below, but also for each item by clicking the photo and then the comment bubble. I would love to know what influences have been behind your native gardening quest.
