About Peg

A warm welcome to readers, old and new. There seems always to be interest in growing your own herbs.Click here to see the article about growing herbs.

     What about past articles? Here is a the place to see other brief essays, or articles, which I prepare from time to time on various topics related to gardens and home horticulture. These new articles, as well as all the previous feature articles, may be found by following this path.

     And here is a place to see little tidbits and links on lots of topics. Have you ever heard of the Gardenology wiki? And, what about turning your yard and garden into a certified wildlife habitat? Read about them here: Did You Know? .

     Another service which I encourage you to use is the opportunity to ask questions related to plants and gardening.
