I have been saving information off the net, and through Emails from some Bonsai Buddies.

I created a file in Word for windows, and of all things, I call it, "BONSAI".
Each document is info on specific trees that are in my collection. I place a "1" in front of the name., ie "1-Bougainvillea". I place a "2" in front of information of a general horticulture nature., etc.

If and when I see information that I wish to add to (say my Bougainvillea document), I cut and paste it to the bottom of the document.

Every month I burn a Back-up CD of all my files including the Bonsai files...

I also have a word document, which is a daily dairy, from repotting to fertilizing with a place for dates when to check for removing wiring, checking on air layering etc.
