The TreeBASE web site has hundreds of data sets and phylogenetic trees. 
You can combine data sets from different studies as well.  A very
interesting site (http://www.treebase.org/treebase/)

Dear Plant Ed,

I am presenting some very elementary aspects of cladistics to a class,

and I'd like to use MacClade for a live demonstration. The program 
comes with a very nice data matrix and some sample trees dealing with 
the evolution of the vertebrates; does anyone know of a similar 
ready-made data matrix for plants? Perhaps for dividing up the major 
groups of plants? I'd love to see a URL or some data...
