PM Intranet: Plant Fact Sheets and Plant Guides Coordination PageUpdated 08/21/2008 Plant Fact Sheets and Guides are a coordinated effort between the Plant Materials Program and the National Plant Data Center, with input from other cooperating organizations. For more information on this effort, contact Scott Peterson by email or by phone at 225-775-6280 x10.
