I was wanting to access the database just for hostas and I don't see it listed any more. I was sure there were links to the specialized databases for roses, beans, tomatoes, etc, listed below or within the plants database link. But I just don't see them now. Were they moved or am I once again being struck with "sometimers?"

Yes, the links are temporarily gone. I did some PDB programming yesterday (quite a bit, actually) and I accidentally forgot to put that back in. I'll make it happen.

Did we ever get a specialized database for Succulents?
If not, will we?

"No" and "probably not" - Dave is working on some changes to the PDB, and I don't really know how he's going to change things this time, so I won't speak for him.

As to why we never got a specialized db for succulents, there wasn't a good consensus as to what it should contain, and we had some members who were quite vocal in their dissent.

At any given time, I have an overflowing platter of to-do's and small projects - more than enough to say "grace" over, so I simply added a category for Cactus and Succulents, cut bait and moved on. (Sorry for the mixed metaphors :)

Thanks for the information and the link to the hosta database. I'm so relieved that I'm still sane!
