Check out these sites to learn more about green things. Start some plants today!

Gayla Sanders' site You Grow Girl is all about the greener side of life. Perfect for DIYers with a green thumb, or for those who can barely keep a plant alive. The site is updated sporadically with features like container gardening, organic weed control, and more. You Grow Girl also has a vibrant online community of gardeners who can answer all your plant questions.

Home and Garden Television's site is a mammoth collection of knowledge. Spend too much time here and you'll morph into Bob Vila. The gardening section is extensive and useful whether you live in an apartment or in a sprawling country estate (don't you wish!)

Homewreckers is a gardening/DIY blog with multiple authors from all around the globe, including New York, California, Australia, London. Lots of stories about gardening in real-life. Sometimes you forget to water or even what you planted, but it's just nice to see some green. Great photos!
