We are rapidly photographing as many plants as possible. We give winter hardy climate zone information for most or our specimens and we offer a Climate Zone Map of North America for quick reference. Our listings have English common names of plants in blue followed by the Botanical names in Latin - black. In many of the lists of seeds, especially the various herbs, fruits, nuts, and vegetables, we have also inserted the common names in Spanish - green. Just as is the case with English, there are often several common names for plants in Spanish.
Common names vary from one country to another.
When searching for an exact species, it is always best to look for the Latin botanical name. We welcome responses from our Spanish speaking friends who may have suggestions, additions or revisions. Most of our temperatures are given in Fahrenheit and sizes are given in inches and feet. Click Here for Automated Metric Conversion Calculator. We have saved most of these items as PDF files which require Adobe Acrobat Reader to download them.
