Re: headcount - list census

Auralie, I've gotten catalogues like that, but you're right, just for
veggies.  I realize this might not be easily done for all ornamentals, but
for some.  However, it's probably not practical for many because, unless
it's a groundcover, most people don't want bunches of any one thing.
