Agreed, that is a great site and you can post wants also. If someone reading
the want list is inclined to sell that book you get a match. From this site
I learned about PayPal. PP is way to pay for web purchases w/o the credit
card. You transfer some money to PP from your card. PP pays interest. PP
pays your bills. It maintains comments on vendors so you will know if a
vendor is safe.
I would suggest if all the grasses in the world are desired, a collection of
catalogs may be the best way to go. Kurt Blumel is the best known and there
must be others. If you send a few dollars each for the best catalogs, you
should have a good idea of what can be purchased at this time. I know very
little about ornamental grasses having only one in the garden. The height is
the problem with me. Placing them well needs some thought. And, I have been
wary of self-seeding.
