Information on plants
Hardy Plant Society (UK)
Well known all over the world with a very enthusiastic membership, local groups, specialist groups and many publications on specific plant groups.National Council for the Conservation of Plants and Gardens - Plant Heritage (UK)
Whilst still Legally remaining the NCCPG the decision makers have confusingly adopted the "Working Title" of Plant Heritage for use at almost all times. The first dedicated garden plant conservation organisation, which established and now regulates the National Plant Collections® scheme. Now has 40 local groups and a range of publications on specific genera written by National Collection holders.Royal Horticultural Society (UK)
I don't really need to say much here, do I! If you can afford the membership subscription (over twice that of most others on this page) it would be worth becoming a member. However (most of) the website is free and provides a great deal of plant information, including the RHS Plant Finder and Nursery Finder. The Mentha entries are used as the "benchmark" by many people and organisations (including the NCCPG/PH) and it is good, but not complete or completely correct!Cottage Garden Society (UK)
Often thought of as an old fashioned way of gardening, Cottage Gardening is what most of us actually do to with our gardens, to a greater or lesser extent.
