Survey of Hardy Bulbs

[J.E. Shields]

Dear all,

In the past couple of years, I have begun to assemble a database of hardy
bulbs in the broadest sense -- geophytes that can be grown in the ground,
all year round.  This will eventually be made available to all who have
contributed to it.  I have posted some comments on this project at

http://www.shieldsgardens.com/GLOVBulbs/hardysurvey.html

There are also data templates in several database and spreadsheet formats
available.  If they won't download from the web site, let me know and I
would be happy to send you a copy as an e-mail attachment.  I can work with
Access, Excel, MS Works, Filemaker Pro, and dBASE-III.

I would hate for aroids to be under-represented in this survey, but I grow
only a few myself.

Jim
