Where on the internet can I go to identify a new plant I received as a gift?

Answer 1

Your county probably has an agricultural extension service that could help you with the identification. Look them up in the government pages of your phone book or call your county courthouse to see if the service is available. You can also contact the Master Gardeners group in your area. You could take a couple of leaves to your local nursery and ask them. You meet the nicest people in gardening programs and organizations.
