For those of you who write and those of you who are just befuddled by botanical Latin and other terms, there’s a great USDA site. It’s an online Thesaurus and Glossary of agricultural terms in English and Spanish which is cooperatively produced by the National Agricultural Library, USDA, and the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture through the Orton Memorial Library.
Go to http://agclass.nal.usda.gov/agt.shtml to get to this great site.
The Pennsylvania Horticultural Society has just announced their 2010 winners. They have chosen five outstanding woody plants as the 2010 Gold Medal Plant winners.
Since 1979, the Gold Medal program has recognized plants of outstanding merit, though often undernoted and underused. The winners are chosen for their superb eye-appeal, performance and hardiness in the growing region of Zones 5-7. They are also judged for their beauty in many seasons, whether it be their foliage, flower or structural form. Go to
http://www.pennsylvaniahorticulturalsociety.org/aboutus/09goldmedal.htm to get this new information as well as information on previous winners.
