Post what bugs you...maybe fixes for 2010?

I'm with you on that one!
Plus seed packages almost always say the same thing when it comes to planting seeds!

Agreed. What poor practice.. It is really annoying when you see Livistona and Majesty palm both with the same label. But, the one that really bothers me is the "cactus/Succulent" tags. Not even an attempt at proper labelling...

I've seen those ones too Paul. The industry needs a shake up. Imagine what outcries there'd be if that attitude was adopted in the maternity ward of hospitals? Oh ... just pick a kid, any kid. They're all the same. :lol:

Cheers, Barrie.
