Projects to improve your garden

Welcome to California Gardens - the year round gardening site.

California Gardens is the growing source for information on plants and gardening in California. From the Native to the Creative there are thousands of plants to fill your garden and even more ways to combine them- California Gardens is a gardening community for California. We have year-round gardening in a climate made for growing -- take advantage of it. Join us in the garden, get mud under your fingernails, and share your gardening interests. We'll grow together!

What can we do to better our planet, our city, our home's? One person at a time we can choose to plant a garden. One more living thing that consumes CO2 helps just a little bit. And your living space will be more beautiful because of it. Find a natural method to accomplish your task, so your part of the world will be abundantly alive. Add another flower to give you or someone who sees your garden some joy. Not a bad start if you ask me.

Come see our plant lists with the plants that we have experience growing in our bit of California. We will give you the lowdown on our experience with these plants in our gardens and show you a great picture too.

We provide a web outlet for several nurseries. We are always interested in adding more nurseries to our list of suppliers, contact us. Some unusual Australian plants, a long list of perennials, and a wide range of Palm Trees, can be found on our catalog pages. And we have a product review for some excellent landscape lighting and irrigation timers.

Spring is here. Warm weather, lots of things are flowering. The heat is drying out the wildflowers quickly. Record temperatures provide difficult conditions for plants and gardeners alike. Look to our Garden Calendar to see what needs to be done in your garden.
