First is Google Earth @
http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html
You need at least 1024x768 screen resolution best is 1280x1024
or better, "32-bit True Color" screen. Dial-up is too slow.
Be sure to read system requirements.
You can see a pretty good view of your trees as seen by
a satellite if you have a high resolution monitor. This might
prove effective to spot certain problems if you know what to look for.
Plus you can get a closeup view of pretty much anywhere on Earth.
I think they take a new picture about every 6 days.
Next is:

A nice reference to find nurseries
This site is listed there.
http://www.findnurseries.com/
Although it can be slow when you first click on a state, it generally speeds up
when you "click here to see a list of nurseries". Slow means 2-4 minutes.
