Find That Fuchsia

This astounding directory can point you to UK nurseries carrying thousands of different fuchsia cultivars. Amazingly complete. So complete, in fact, that I wonder how the information is gathered. Perhaps the nurseries themselves send the information.

Arboretum de Villardebelle

A very complete conifer site that includes taxonomic information and photos, as well as many useful links.

American Fuchsia Society

Ginny in San Jose said: "The absolute best place to learn about fuchsias and obtain many for free, is to join your local fuchsia society. I did so a year ago and have probably 30 fuchsias, most of which I brought home from a meeting. They give them away!! You will also learn how to grow them from a variety of experts. You find there is more than one way to do it. I have throughly enjoyed the meetings I've attended and the people I've met. Gardeners, especially Fuchsia growers, are great people! Here is the link for the page that tells about the local chapters. I see there is one in San Francisco. The big fuchsia convention is also occuring this summer. See the main page for details. Have fun!!"

Gymnosperm Database

Someday hopefully you can call me the "Gymnosperm Database"...

Northeastern flora

This site is a beautiful winner, put together by an amateur. Contains hundreds of lovely photos. Amazing! I wish my site came half as close.

WollemiPine.com

An amazing story about a beautiful, nearly extinct tree. Apparently these trees will be offered to the public soon, and this site allows you to register your interest in getting a tree. Shoot is signed up!

PLANTS National Database

The best part of this database is its inclusion of germination info for many species not often grown be other, less tree-obsessed gardeners.  Also wonderful for photos, links to the scientific literature, and links to other web sites.  Indispensable.

Strybing Arboretum

There's no place more pleasant in San Francisco for a plant lover.  I've posted some photos of Strybing's trees, but they have their own gallery.

Seed Site

Wonderful pictures of many, many seedlings to help in identification. Fun to browse, or when you forgot to label. Unfortunately, not many pictures of conifer seedlings. Perhaps I should try to submit some pictures to the owner.

GardenWeb Forums

Some of the people who visit these forums have an amazingly deep knowledge base.  They must be professionals or academics.  Others, like me, are mostly along for the ride.
