Just wanted to share a website that I just found. Very useful for finding plants by type/hardiness.
For example you can search for all bamboo variates that will be hardy in zone 6b.
Or all vines with red flowers hardy in zone 7 and so on.
http://plantlust.com/
I'm not affiliated with them in any way...just wanted to share because it seems useful.
Anyone use anything else to discover new plants.
Useful websites for hardiness information?

Good suggestion, still gotta check that one out.
I use and contribute to davesgarden.com on a regular basis, photos and comments and have successfully traded many times with other daves garden members.
To search a plant, I google search the plant name followed by "dave's" and it almmost always comes up as the first result,
e.g. helianthus tuberosus dave's .
You can do this an unlimited number of times each day. Info not always perfectly correct. I do like the general info and I like to read comments about plants before I get too interested in a new plant investment.

Nice suggestion, I've also used that site before. For the most part, they have more accurate ratings than others.
