For Each repeating hundreds of times for only a few records

I am using the php simple dom parser screen scraper and I am trying to set it up to scrape the contents of a page. The problem is its pulling the data in ok, but its repeating it over and over again and I cant work out why. It seems each record is being repeated over several times.

    <?php
    // example of how to use basic selector to retrieve HTML contents
    include('../simple_html_dom.php');

    // get DOM from URL or file
    $html = file_get_html('http://www.goldengrovenursery.co.uk/griffin_x/results.asp?txtgenus=Chamaecyparis&txtcultivar=&txtcolour=All&Search=Availability&offset=40');



    echo '<table>
    <thead><th>Genus</th><th>Cultivar</th></thead>
    <tbody>';
    foreach($html->find('td.genus') as $a)
    foreach($html->find('td.cultivar') as $b)
    foreach($html->find('td.species') as $c)
        echo '<tr><td>'.$a->innertext.'</td><td>'.$b->innertext.'</td><td>'.$c->innertext.'</td></tr>';
    echo '</tbody>
    </table>
    ';
    ?>

The page its scraping from is here : http://www.goldengrovenursery.co.uk/griffin_x/results.asp?txtgenus=Chamaecyparis&txtcultivar=&txtcolour=All&Search=Availability&offset=40

The above script ends up looking like this, even though there are only 10 records on the page :

You'er searching the whole document for cultivar with your second foreach() loop, not simply the genus that you're already found with the first foreach(); and similarly for species within cultivar

But because each entry is actually in its own row in a nested table, you also need to backtrack up through the dom for each entry: 

foreach($html->find('td.genus') as $a)
foreach($a->parent()->parent()->find('td.cultivar') as $b)
foreach($b->parent()->parent()->find('td.species') as $c)

Better variable naming might also make this clearer:

foreach($html->find('td.genus') as $genus) {
    foreach($genus->parent()->parent()->find('td.cultivar') as $cultivar) {
        foreach($cultivar->parent()->parent()->find('td.species') as $species) {
            echo '<tr><td>' . 
                $genus->innertext .
                '</td><td>' .
                $cultivar->innertext .
                '</td><td>' .
                $species->innertext.
                '</td></tr>';
        }
    }
}
