Re: Lupinus palaestinus


Hello Lily --
I'd love to see the picture of this Lupine, but the database interface is 
so huge that it crashes my computer.  Is there a way to get to that one 
picture without having to load the whole database (or whatever that webpage 
is trying to do on my little 56K connection)?
Thanks a bundle,
-- Susannah
