    Anyone shopped at

    www.sunshine-seeds.de

    ?

    Lots of unusual things, but its taking me ages wandering through Letter-by-Letter and Page-by-Page :(

    Worthwhile or am I wasting my time? I haven't found much that I want as yet - too many items require far too warm a temperature, and I don't think I'd be able to over winter them.

    Or maybe I'm being a sissy?

      Using Chrome? Mine just translates the pages as I browse them (on that site the translation is good enough that I had hardly noticed it was Germ-lish

      IE should do the same, although I'm not sure it is quite as seamless (you might have to right click the page and click Please Translate

      Hmmm ... Firefox not got a "translate" mode?

      If not time to have a go with Chrome I reckon. Has a number of benefits like that which suits me well. For example, typing into the address bar provides a predictive-text list to choose from based on Google searches, and URLs in your Browser History and Favourites that you might be attempting to reference again.

      The Google Search stuff is heavily weighted to what you routinely search for ... so in my case anything I try to search for just gives me a picklist of the Latin names of plants!!!!

        Firefox might have a translate mode but its probably well hidden, as with most things these days.
        I do have Chrome but only use it now and then, I think its a case of continue using what you know.
        Or dont.:biggrin:

        Sorry, slack use of "want". "want" = "has a slim chance of surviving" :) That wipes out 90% of the catalogue. There are only so many plants, if perennials, that I can grow that need a winter of 10-15C min ... sadly.

          I expect that describes all of use :)

          Chuck that URL in Chrome then and see what you think of the Translate capability. Then add "foreign language" to your "now and again" maybe? :heehee:

          Or you could be like Queen Isabella of Spain
          Who likes it, just now and again,
          But I want to explain
          That by "now and again"
          She means NOW and AGAIN and AGAIN!!
