Even though we’re in the midst of non-stop winter weather, there is a bit of light at the end of the tunnel. By mid-January the days become noticeably longer – and it’s actually time to start thinking about the spring garden.
First step – order your spring bulbs and specialty annuals. Take advantage of pre-season pricing.
And enjoy a much fuller selection. Exotic items are available only in limited supply, so when it comes to gardening it really is true that the early bird gets the worm.
Early shopping also means early delivery and savvy gardeners know that early indoor forcing can give you a huge head start on next season’s spectactular!

Wondering who was recently rated the best overall value for flowers by the Wall Street Journal. You won’t be surprised. I wasn’t.
It was ProFlowers.com
. Like I said, no big surprise. They deliver fresh, fresh, fresh flowers for some of the best prices around. I’m a big fan of their bulk bouquets, but I must admit that their arrangements and potted plants are pretty spectacular, too.

Looking for an alternative to sending flowers or a blooming plant? How about the gift of bonsai?
Nothing beats the zen simplicity and elegance of a bonsai tree. Not only is it a gift that’s sure to last for years (many bonsai trees are decades old by the time we buy them) – it’s a gift that could very well grow into a hobby or a zen obsession.
A great option for just about any gifting occasion.

It’s quickly becoming prime gardening season here in Chicago and all over the country. Already a few of my braver neighbors have planted their annuals and filled their window boxes. I’m not as confident that we won’t have one more cold blast before blooming weather is here to stay. That’s a bit of a lie – the truth is that I just haven’t been organized enough to get it done. It’s a big job – going to the garden center, trying to create a design for my window boxes from whatever they have available and then running home to get the planting done ASAP. It’s an event. I’ve found a way to get those container gardens rolling with a bit less effort – at Windowbox.com 
.
It’s a one stop shopping source for things related to container gardening. Windowbox.com offers a vast collection of gardening containers, custom windowboxes and supplies. They also provide all kinds of useful information, advice, and everything you need to experience the joys of growing plants in containers. They call what they do ‘horticultural therapy’. They’re committed to the idea that bringing people and plants together makes the world a better place.
