Gardening resources
When I decided to begin perennial gardens, I went to the library with a stack of old postcards. When looking through the library's gardening books, often times there are numerous listings included in the back of the book for obtaining plant resources from greenhouses and nurseries around the country. I wrote to a couple dozen of these places on the postcards. Some said their plant "brochures" were only available for a fee. I simply told them I was beginning my gardening project and just about everyone sent me a complimentary gardening brochure. They helped make the winter go faster and made it easier for me to "plan the project" for that year.
