Garden Dreaming... Fall 2014, getting ready for Winter

There is no better time to dream of a garden than fall or wintertime.

I want to send off for some catalogs very soon, so I can dream about what I want to plant next year.

Will I actually DO it? Depends.

But it's SO fun to think about it.

I take these catalogs from a former posting, the BIG list of catalogs.

Let me know of any broken links - - I will go through it later too. AND list your favorites I should add, AND if you try any of these, please let me know if you like them.
