 Mr PGC travels around the
United States, Canada, Great Britain, Ireland and
Europe gathering information and taking pictures
i.e. "capturing images" in today's tech speak. He
visits many retail nurseries and ornamental plant
test gardens each spring and summer to gather images
of the best (and sometimes worst) landscape plants.
We are proud of the images we have on the website
and strive to upgrade them all the time.
 Although our
major goal is to provide good, detailed information
on landscaping and landscape ornamental plants, we
are, after all, a business.
So, we ask two things if you would like to use our
images:
1. If you are
a not for profit organization, please give us credit and a
link to our website.
2. If you are
using the images in a profit making process, please
get our permission and pay us for our efforts.
Please read
our image use policy below for the details.
Contact us if you have any
questions.
Thank you,
Mr PGC
