We were delighted to host two phenomenal UK plantsmen last week, John Grimshaw (l), and Tom Christian (r). John is the Editor and Tom, the Assistant Editor, of the encyclopedic Trees and Shrubs On-Line project, which we’ve written about before. Sponsored by the International Dendrology Society, their goal is to update and expand their on-line database of all hardy woody plants, including species and cultivars. This amazing project will easily take another decade, should adequate funding be available. Their US trip started in Massachusetts and ended in North Carolina, with an untold array of photos and notes taken. We wish them the best as this massive project continues.
