Drat you people - now you've got me interested in my tank again. I can do
fish, but never had any luck with aquatic plants. Sigh...
I've read through all the posts here for the last 30 days or so, but still
have some questions. Is there a good site that can give me answers to basic
questions?

Wow, such is your luck today. Look what I stumbled upon yesterday
while I was bored at work...
http://www.csd.net/~cgadd/aqua/ah_main/july1997.html
This is the first article in a series written by Karen Randall, a true
guru and nice person in the wet plant world. Here is the index to the
rest of the series:
http://www.csd.net/~cgadd/aqua/ah_main/
This is some of the best stuff I've found yet. It's written at the
right level for what we're looking for and in a style that is easy and
enjoyable to read.

Guess I shouldn't assume you've seen these:
http://www.csd.net/~cgadd/aqua/46g.htm
and these:
http://www.plantgeek.net/article_viewer.php?id=9
http://www.plantgeek.net/plantguide.php
come on back in about a month and ask as many questions as you can!
(meaning it will take a month to read all that stuff, and the related
links)

Well if you really want to 'bury' her in plant stuff...
...and I still included Chuck's site, and not only because he has a page
on one of my articles.

Just in case you don't know, there's rec.aquaria.freshwater.plants to
help your addiction along. ;-)
