The flower and seed catalogs are steadily arriving in the mail. They are lovely reminders that the Earth will soon thaw and I'll have soil under my nails in no time. By this time next month there will be several flats in the basement, being warmed by fluorescent lights, that contain germinating vegetable, herb, and flower seeds. In the meantime, here are some reading suggestions to help ready you for this year's growing season:
