Plant Information Online [https://plantinfo.umn.edu/arboretum/default.asp ] - Produced by the University of Minnesota Libraries, Plant Information Online is intended for just about anyone with a green thumb, or those who want to get their thumbs a bit greener. Visitors to this fine database will find details on over 134,000 wild and cultivated plants, along with information on over 2200 North American retail and wholesale seed and nursery firms. From the homepage, visitors can search the plant database by scientific or common name, and they can also take a look at the search tips for a bit more guidance. Additionally, the site also contains links to selected websites that feature both images and more detailed regional data on thousands of plants. After locating plants of interest, some visitors may wish to browse through the nursery database for tips on locating the closest place for geraniums, hydrangeas, and other such forms of vegetation. >From The Scout Report, Copyright Internet Scout Project 1994-2007. http://scout.wisc.edu/ [Photo: http://z.about.com/d/landscaping/1/0/G/A/orangy_poison_ivy_leaf.jpg]
