<<At first you alphabetize by the common names, and then I see they are listed under botanical names.

At first, i really didnt know any botanical names... and even though i have learned A LOT in the past 4 yrs... i still use the search/find feature to locate a seed. some I still dont know the spelling or something, or only recall part of the name. but for obvious reasons... i'ts nice to have both.

with the scientific name, you can find/google and find exactly what you are looking for... common names are just too broad.

>>When do you have time for them all?

Last year, sadly - i did not get them all in the ground and some died. I started a P/T job in Wisc, so i'm gone a lot and plant like a mad women when i come home for a few days.

But i also maintain a few beds up in our RV park and give some plants away.

I usually do not transplant any... when they are big enough, they go right in the ground.
