first let me say I love the format of these pages--it was so easy to read, undertand & navigate from & back to. I esp love the use of symbols & the key in the Perennial Rock Garden Plant profile-- I also appreciate being able to look at some of the photos & then read what members have said in the past----old info is still good AND applicable. Thanks much.

These pages are very well done, Bill. The background is a bit dark on my PC but I can still read it and that is great considering I have a hard time reading many sites at all.
What a handy format you've chosen. Thanks much.

Yep... from some "Master Gardener" He even had the nerve to hot link back to MY images (which don't show up on his site, thanks to Mr. Gizmo!  That's right up there with stealing a guy's Garden gnomes (or frogs) out of his own yard!  About 2 years ago, some woman (with money) decided that she liked my site name so she paid for garden-helper.com to be built for her... Kinda P'd me off and still does,  but today I discovered that some guy liked HER site name and started his site garden-helpercom.com.  That got me laughing pretty good! Bet that neither of them will ever make it into Time magazine though!

They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, Bill, but to me this is just plain theft and bad manners.

I couldn't remember if I had ever posted that. It was a lonnng time ago.  I was in Seventeen Magazine once too... but I don't have a link or anything for it... It was for 'Plant a tree for Arbor Day' or something... I'll try to find my 'cool link' list later. Its been a long day already and now I am off to town

There is stuff here that has remained unseen since 1982. Ask Cindy... we went treasure hunting in the back (ick) room one day when she was here

I wasn't particularly happy with 'look' of the Calendar page,
