I have this list in Excel, but I have been planning to make it easier to
read with the net-browser; to give it a new "finish" as a web-page, but so
far I haven't got time to this. I am also thinking of updating the list to
containing all the species I have in my nursery, with the germination
methods for all of them. This year I have sown around 1000 different
perennials so far, and still a few hundreds left to sow...

There is so much knowledge "out there", but so little is written down about
propagtion in the litterature. It is easy to find out if a plant requires
full sun, or if it prefers a dry soil, etc., but often hard to find out how
to propagate it. And I feel that so many people are in doubt how to
germinate different species of seeds, for excample, so I am trying to make a
database of species and methods. 

Duncan has a good question here... What do people mean?
