Check out this site about all you need to know to be a gardener. It is easy,
comprehensive, somewhat humorous and complete enough with the possibility to
follow a short course on the subject. The BBC series with the site were rather
fun to watch and amazingly comprehensible.

The site contains info on plants (with info on how and where to plant them as
well as how to care for them) under the subject 'plantlist' at

http://www.bbc.co.uk/gardening/htbg/plantlists.shtml

I started on the course but lost interest because everytime I tried to
implement something I learned during the course in _our_ 'garden' I ended up
digging out trash and debris for hours on end (left there by previous
inhabitants of our current home). At times it feels more like an archeological
dig then gardening to me..... ;o) So it's no fun at all to be a gardener.
(Minor problem might also be that I already didn't like gardening anyway :o)
).

So now I wonder when I will find that roman fortress? ;o)
