[MPWG] Re: Latin American Medicinal Plants

[Elise]

Paul,
Local to the Athens area of Southeastern Ohio, are two nurseries that might 
be of help:  Glasshouse Works and Companion Plants.  I know that they both 
have some medicinals and that the first specializes in rare and exotic 
plants.
Companion Plants: complants at frognet.net
  www.companionplants.com
Glasshouse Works:
   www.glasshouseworks.com
Hope these are helpful leads!
