    HortitubeI just dropped by this Hortitube-website: It’s a Dutch website with video’s related to the horticultural sector. I guess they are still building their stock of video’s because the lion’s share of the clips are promotional clips. Check out for instance the “Internationaal” section with a video about OZ-import’s King Quality.
    Video’s that are uploaded are automatically put on Youtube by the way. So, why bother to put it on Hortitube first? Nevertheless, maybe you find some interesting stuff.
