Collecting list of plant databases.

I'm collecting lists of online plant databases. Or lets say just plant websites.

UBC Botanical garden is on my list now, does anyone else know more of such websites?

Except for the plantsearcher most of the lists online are seriously outdated.

Anybody knows of a list with interesting online plant databases?

Re: Collecting list of plant databases.

There are some sites mentioned in the Internet sources of information thread in the Cultivar IDs forum of the Vancouver Cherry Blossom Festival forums. Some of the sites do more than cherries, and others are just for (mostly ornamental) cherries.

Re: Collecting list of plant databases.

Several mentioned in this thread:

And of course the Web and Print Resources of the forums is full of links to valuable plant-based databases:
