Online Plant Guide
A National Database of plants was released last month. This database contains digital images of plants for the home garden. These were collected from all across the county - Florida to Washington and Maine to California.
Another great resource for us all.

Retail and Wholesale Nurseries in North America
Hi everyone,
I just received this information from our state MG office. The following is a website that lists retail and wholesale nurseries where plants and seeds of all types (>100,000) can be purchased. There is also bibliographic details for more than 350,000 images of wild and cultivated plants from around the world. This resource has just become public from the University of Minesota. Check it out.

Proven Winners Website
If you haven't checked out the Proven Winners website, I strongly recommend you take a look. They have a lot of interesting ideas.
One of their pages (under Combinations) shows ideas for containers. There is a page for grasses, shade plants, sun plants, etc. etc. etc.
Great place to get ideas and see what's new.
