RE: website

that's interesting, libby, about trying out a site at work. that's what i do all the time--e-mail the address to work, open it there where we have dsl over fiber optic lines and a server that runs very little besides web connections and e-mail. if i like the site, i e-mail the address back home and open it on this old monkey box and immortalize it among my "favorites."

oh sure, David, now you've gone and done it.  I was perfectly happy just
reading the postings about those lovelies and how much all the hib addicts
love them.  Now I've meandered through your website and seen your beautiful
pics and read about them and now I WANT THEM.  <big grin>

BTW the pictures loaded fine for me but I am accessing from work (shhh) on a
fast connection, if that has anything to do with it.  I thought the site was
well written, inviting, informative, and easy to navigate.  Nice job.

In hindsight, I might be inclined to add somewhere in a title or someplace
on the home page the word 'hibiscus' - have to get into paragraph 2 of who
you are before the subject of discussion is plainly stated - for those of us
who don't (or didn't) recognize the flower on sight.

I'm sure you answered this before, but since I was a hibiscus bystander
then... any plans to expand to mail order in the next couple years?  (Or
maybe we just have to plan that field trip to CA)

David, the site reflects your hard work! Only thing I noticed was that
some of the pictures didn't load completely - I'd get two thirds or
three quarters, then a white band. Next time I'm in your neck of the
woods, I'm coming!!! (But I will ask permission first...)
