Hi Theresa,

   I don't know off-hand, but I can easily find out.  I try to keep all 
   of my plants in a database so that I know where they are, when they
   were purchased, and how much they cost.  

   The tricky part is defining 'plant'.  I have a whole bed of 
   Ceratostigma plumbaginoides (leadwort) that came from a 4" pot.
   Is that one plant?  :)

   This is one of the features that I hope to add to hort.net, although
   a lot of people have told me that they wouldn't find it useful.  
   Personally, I find it invaluable when Romeo tears a plant label 
   out of the ground.  

Chris
