As you might have noticed, we've introduced an exciting new
format for the ever-so-popular
Landscape Plant Search. Allow me to explain.
The #1 question we're asked at Northscaping (by a country
mile) is "Where can we buy the plants we find on the Landscape Plant Search?"
Most of the "regular" Northscapers on the site know that we don't sell any
plants at all - this is a resource, information and community website for
northern gardeners and home landscapers. Yet people find plants they like, and
they want to purchase or order them. By the way, the #2 question we get asked is
"How do you guys make money to keep the site alive?"
Curiously enough, the answer to both of these questions is
now the same. You see, we've taken the power of the Landscape Plant Search and
given it to the individual retail nurseries and garden centers across North
America by putting it onto their websites. Now you can search through their
plants, knowing that you can then buy or order the plants from that business.
We've even added a new technology that allows you, the user, to build your own
lists of plants! It should surprise no one that this breakaway technology, which
we've called "NetPS",
has turned out to be both more popular and more powerful
than the original Landscape Plant Search!
So now we've decided to give you two ways to search for
your plants on Northscaping. You can find a local plant retailer near you and
use their NetPS plant search, knowing that you're searching through the plants
they normally carry and that you can then buy them there. Alternatively, we've
still got the original Landscape Plant Search available for you, but with a
twist - it's now powered by the same hyper-engine that's driving NetPS to renown
and glory. In other words, thousands more plants, better search routines, and
much more information. The choice is yours!
Go and check it out - it's on the new
Landscape Plant Search page!
