A vast amount of information about plants, including searchable databases,
can be found on the Web pages of the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew
(http://www.rbgkew.org.uk).
Eventually you will even be able to search an index to the
DNA samples held by Kew. If you fancy trying a bit of DIY cloning—of
plants—you can find helpful advice on the pages of the horticultural
science group at the University of New England
(http://www.une.edu.au/~agronomy/AgSSrHortTCinfo.html).
The tools you use must be sterile, so you will need a 70
per cent solution of ethanol—which is a bit too strong for a consolation
tipple if the cuttings fail to take.
