Hurray! Another vote here for a space in the database for unknown cultivars or hybrids etc. A Rose is a Rose is a Rose ... well, unless it's a Begonia. Big Grin

LOL! I think Trish's dancing banana from that page should be the one wearing the Superman (Superwoman?) cape.

I really love the idea of a "general" page as well as pages for specific cultivars... especially if it might be possible to move info in the other direction also, perhaps putting generally applicable comments about germination, pruning, fertilizing, etc. in the article-type entry.
We're all learners, doers, teachers.

Hmmm ...

Maybe some years from now ...

Collect all those "top-level article-type entries" into an encyclopedia!

"Everything you ever wanted to know about plants,
but your Internet connection was too slow to ask."

I guess, as soon as they are here, they already are an "online encyclopedia".

Google had better invest in more servers, this is going to be GREAT.
Just because it ISN'T complicated doesn't mean I can't MAKE it complicated!
