Websites with Good Information about Landscape Plants
This is what I do if I want to know about a particular plant: I go to the websites of the four southeastern Extension Services that I generally trust (Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Florida) plus the Missouri Botanical Garden (MOBOT), which has a wonderful plant finder. I would probably visit the website of a major grower (Proven Winners, Monrovia, McCorkle’s Nursery). From all this information, I draw a conclusion about the size of the plant. I might also run it by a small group of landscaper friends to get their experiences. This way I get a true picture of the plant.
