Are you familiar with the newsgroup rec.gardens? It has a (semi) regular flow of information about "good" and "bad" mail order sources, as well as loads of sometimes useful information on planting. If you're looking for shrubs and such two reputable sources are Wayside and Mellinger's (sp?). I can't give you more specific information right now, but if you're interested, I can bring these (and other) catalogs in from home. They'll be last year's, however. On the other hand, the offerings don't seem to change that much from year to year, and you'll have their addresses and phone numbers. Alex. ------- End of Forwarded Messages
