Tired of growing the same
old azaleas and Bradford
pears? Gardeners looking for
something different can check
out hundreds of suitable plants
on a free Web site created by
horticulturists at North
Carolina State University.
The site is located at:
http://www.ces.ncsu.edu/dept
s/hort/consumer/pages.html.
It offers photos and informa
tion on plants that grow well
in USDA Zones 6, 7 and 8 -
zones that include much of the
Southeast and Mid-Atlantic,
and parts of the West and
Southern Plains.
“There are so many wonder
ful options open to gardeners
in these zones,” says site coor
dinator Erv Evans, consumer
horticulture specialist with
the N.C. Cooperative
Extension Service at NC State.
“Our goal is to get people to
consider new and underuti
lized plants.”
The site is organized into
“online booklets” that help
users quickly and easily find
plants to meet their needs.
“Urban Tree Identification”
has more than 80 trees in its
index, while “Perennials” has
information on more than 160
flowers. Smaller “booklets,”
accessible through internal
links, offer information on top
ics such as ornamental grasses
and vegetable and herb gar
dening. Additional booklets on
the wildflowers of North
Carolina and summer-flower
ing bulbs are under review.
Entries can he searched by
common or botanical names,
and each includes the informa
tion you’ll need to grow the
plant. To get a good look at the
plant, click on the thumbnail
image and a full-screen color
photo will appear.
