You might try   http://www.isc.tamu.edu/FLORA/tfplinks.html  as a
starting point.  I haven't used it, but it seems to have a lot of
useful links.  Good Luck!

Does anyone know of an online site where I can check botanical names? A
sort of Internet Hortus III, perhaps, but one which is updated regularly? 

Failing that, does anyone know what genus the annual chrysanthemums
(Chrysanthemum carinatum and others) have been placed in? I understand
that Chrysanthemum as a genus as almost been eliminated and I have managed
to find the new names of most of the perennial species I know of, but not
the annual ones.

Thanks for helping,
