I agree. But adding a place for all members to give recommendations and show pictures of plants received would be nice, too. Even if negative reviews were omitted.
There are threads like that scattered about on different forums now. It would be nicer to have them all in one spot and easy to find. e.g:
A few days ago I was considering ordering from Sequim Rare Plants. I searched and got 4 hits-
http://garden.org/search/index...
2 nice concise blog posts from zuzu and chelle. The other 2 were forum threads of 20 pages and 15 pages, respectively. Who wants to read 20 pages of chat on a thread to find one post? Not me. Again, recommendations together in one forum, a new thread for each new recommendation, would be very helpful.
I posted a recommendation for Garden Harvest Supply recently, complete with pictures. But I have no idea what forum it's in.
