    [​IMG] Well I have had my care tips for March. I like the way they have laid each section out, & being able to scroll to the bottom of the page & see at a glance which of your plants need any attention..!! Great...! :cool: Excellent for "beginner gardeners".... ;) I am slowly adding my plants. Suprising how many I have had to look up as I don't remember planting them...!!! :rolleyes: Anyway how are you all finding it????????? [​IMG]

    :( Wish I had kept the labels over the years.
    It's a really good site and my list is growing as I eventually indentify the plants!! :D

    I love this site, works great for me.

    I do have a personal preference though; when you get the care instructions thro', I would rather know what plants are going to be dealt with first, before reading the care instructions.

    My funny brain makes me scroll down to the bottom to see the plant list and then scroll up again to see the cultural instructions.

    If I had a large garden and lots of plants maybe I would see it the other way. An option to display plants before or after would be the icing on the cake! But that's just me, lovely site!

    [​IMG] Why not suggest it to them, then Dag. It would seem they are open to sugestions. [​IMG]

    Yes I would, but I know they are up to their neck in launching at the moment, and wondered if anybody else felt the same before contacting them? I take that as a yes then? [​IMG]

    [​IMG] Well Dag, I am happy the way it is. As you say they are up to their necks in it at the mo, but they would probably be able to say yes or no for the future.. ;) :D

    [​IMG] Hey Dag,
    I just noticed that if you go & log into your shoot account, & then select "care calender" in "your garden". Menu on right. It asks in the first line, whether you want to view by "plants" or "activity". So you can have the plants first & activity after... :D So can anyone else come to that who would like to see the plant names first.. [​IMG]
