> Hi, Duncan! What a great idea. I use the regular search engines for
general information, espesially if I'm looking for sources. Most
frequently used is Metacrawler at http://www.metacrawler.com it
searches through several engines at once. If I'm looking for propagation
info, I use the archives at Mallorn and/or
http://www.eskimo.com/~mcalpin/tm.html or
http://home.sol.no/asles/sowing.htm
I've also bookmarked a lot of online catalogues and use them not only to
order, but for descriptive information when the original source (plant
tag, news/mag. article, etc.,) is skimpy.
Looking forward to more ideas!
