The project currently has two sites in the South West of England where many of the plants are being grown on a trial basis, and maintains a small mail order catalogue.
The website contains an online database of over 7000 plants that can be grown in the UK, the data is created/collated by Ken Fern, it was programmed and is maintained by Rich Morris, and can be either used online free of charge, or downloaded for a small sum.
Fern has also published a book detailing many of the plants featured in the database.
