Horticopia

[rfwoodvt]

Anybody using horticopia? if so, how do you usually incorporate it in your business?

Also, have you used the pest/disease add on and does that work like the main horticopia package where you can add your own data and images?

I would use it for making species planting recommendations to clients if I had it.

I would probably use it as a door stop most of the time.

Rick, are you going to the splicing workshop at Longwood in May? PM me if you are.

We use it on our laptop when selling plantings to customers. Nice to be able to pull up pictures and info on specific plants instead of paging through books or trying to describe them.

I used Horticopia in my retail garden center days. Google is cheaper and easier. Don't know about the pest module.The Vermont Urban and Community Forestry page has a good tree selection tool if that's what you need, and they are about to put out (in PDF) a new book on Recommended Trees for Vermont Communities.
And, it's run by one of my favorite persons in the world, Danni.
