Seed, Bulb, Plant Inventory Software

Dianne,

I have a custom system in Microsoft Access. Whatever you use, you will
need a relational database (even if it is not called that). At the very
least, you need to move from Excel spreadsheet(s) to a true database program.

I can send you a "template" database, but you will need a copy of MS Access
to use it.

I've never been happy with systems designed by other people! I recommend
using MS Access and learning how to tweak things to suit yourself.

I have been researching software to keep track of my seeds, bulbs and
plants not only that I have them, but where they are located in my
gardens. I have looked at Pleasant Lake Software and am trialing it for
30 days. The other software package I looked at was Plantstep, however
there focus is mainly on Daylilies. I am currently keeping track via
Excel spreadsheets.

Does anyone have a software program they are using and like it?
