We want to add some new fruit to our orchard this year. Has anyone had
Honeysuckle fruit before ? RainTree advertises Blue Pacific, Blue Velvet and
Kamchatka. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Me, too. And that's as far as it went. Then it timed out. I tried over and
over. Maybe I'll read the "Help" section ;-) But seriously, I guess I will
live without it. Have so far.

Jim,

You've mentioned before about people driving by to look at your place,
because it's an anomaly. Sort of an oasis in a desert. You have my
curiosity up. Do you have any summer pictures you could post? Would love
to see them.

Toni,

I went back and was able to make it work (even with this dinosaur equipment).
Did you click on the "soil properties and qualities" tab? Otherwise don't
know what the problem could be, but I would think if my old computer on
dial-up can make it work, anyone could. Windows 98 Forever!
