 nothing better September 21, 2001
23 out of 23 found this review helpful
botanica plus has the most extensive library of pictures and information available. i have gained knowledge about plants i am now able to grow, that i always avoided before. The only set back is the need to return to what seems step a when entering a list. but other than that it has and will remain to be very helpful. Like having a real horticulturalist living in the same house. i would have no hesitation in recommending it.
 Help tips annoying August 6, 2000

This is without doubt the best gardening encyclopaedia in CD ROM format that I have come across & earns its star rating due to its large database of plants (10,000) and good quality photographs (3,000).On the down side the plant finder could do better if it had a leaf shape search criteria which would help to narrow down a plant search.The annoying thing about the program is the "tool tips" that keep popping up and getting in the way of the already to small screen display, with no apparent option to turn them off,the program display size looks a bit lost on my monitor (but so do the other encyclopaedias I have). Despite these grumbles the program is excellent value for money and my other encylopaedia CD ROM's are destined to become yet more drinks coasters.
