Must be a dyslexic thing, can't remember. Does anyone have a link to a good web site, with pictures, so I can refresh myself. Thanks in advance. Peter http://plantsdatabase.com/ That's one, if you go to google .. www.google.com you can search many different ways, just try words that you can think of, combine them, try them one way, then turn them around.. sometimes you get different results, do an advanced search to block out stuff you don't want to see. Good luck! Janice This is the same thing I said, sans the smarmy exclamation point. Need a good, cheap, knowledge expanding present for a friend? http://www.animaux.net/stern/present.html |

Did you give this person a list of websites? No? Oh, then go away. No, gave him one that has a lot of pictures with it. Don't know if it was on that site, but he did find it.

Someone suggested, after he posted photo's that, it was wisteria. I don't know how anyone could identify anything without seeing the flower, but okay.

Giving a man a fish is nothing compared to teaching him how to catch them But... the man Did NOT ask for us to identify it. He said he was a bit rusty on names as it had been awhile since he'd gardened, and asked if there were places we could recommend .. you know ... reference sites..where he could refresh his memory.. putting names with plants.. even if only pictures. He just couldn't remember the name of the vine, and wanted to look at some pictures with names. I gave him the one site I could remember.. because .. gee things slip my mind these days too. Not everyone is experienced and can get the search engines to spit out things we want. I can sometimes, but there are times that for the life of me, I can't. Giving the man a reference site or two is like giving the fisherman a worm or two to fish with to get started. It's not like it's some closely guarded secret that *I* need to keep my arm curled around all hunched over hissing, spitting and lashing out to protect. Mine! Mine! Mine!
