Some web sites are able to provide more information than we could possibly provide on this site alone, so we've included links to these sites below. 

For general information about gardening, we recommend The American Horticultural Society (membership required to access certain portions of this site).

For an exhaustive database of plants listed by popular names as well as scientific names, try Cavano's Perennials , Better Home and Gardens or this database provided by the University of Connecticut .   

These links to the USDA Plant Hardiness Zone map and the American Horticultural Society's heat zone map should help you decide what to plant in your area.  (Of course, you could always just come in or call and ask us!)  And here's a link to the University of Maryland Insect and Disease Monitoring Program database for some great information on pest control and recent infestations here in Maryland.

For those planning some outdoor gardening within the next few days, or for anyone looking to protect fragile outdoor plants from frost, perhaps this link to Weather.com might be useful.
