* Historic Plants of the Area - We're looking to identify common landscape plants of the area from around 1850. This would include vegetables, trees, shrubs, perennials and annuals. RBG will be promoted as part of a "historic tour package" to bring groups to Janesville and we'll be developing plantings and intepretation to display and describe plants of that era. Details to be determined.
* Scented Plants - I could use some help finding and researching scented plants for our "Smelly Garden" (Children's Garden) and I'd like to develop some more involved interpretation regarding the purpose and value of scent in the garden.
* Viburnums - I'm planning on developing a "mini" viburnum collection and have a list of some rarer species and varieties. If anyone is interested in some internet research, I'd like to find sources and prices for these target plants.
* Plant Sleuths - Similar to the research approach mentioned above regarding locating viburnums, I could use some sleuths to help locate plants for me (internet research). I accumulate huge files of "plants I want" but run short on having time to track them down. This duty would depend on my running list of "potentials". Contact me and we can talk.
Thanks!
Mark D.
