I'm curious about the newest figures too! The first page of the database says that there are now 181,169 plants in the database, 192 new plants since the last report.

Smiling We're doing good but I know we can do better! I'm going to try to add a few more each day as I get the time.

Rita, I wasn't planning on posting a weekly report to this forum, but what I did do was add the report to the weekly emailed newsletter. This last Monday was the first newsletter that including the week's statistics for the database. If you're not signed up, just hit your Profile/Preferences. Thumbs up

I've been seeing Rita's photos too. The other day I had already clicked the mouse to go to another forum when I caught a glimpse of some red berries Rita had taken a photo of & they were in the random plant image. DRAT! I couldn't stop & click on her photo before the page changed. Wanted to look at it closer. Sad

I do get the newsletter and I remember looking at the stats on Monday. I just now looked at it again since Dave reminded me of the newsletter.

How about the acorn reports? No acorn report in the newsletter like you had on this report from last Wednesday.

Lin, thanks. I have tons of pictures so I keep slogging thru them.

Ann: Was it this beautiful shot of Winterberry Holly that Rita added to the database?

edited to say Winterberry Holly!
edited again to say, maybe it was the photo of fruit of the American Mountain Ash:

Yeah, I'm getting carried away here. I'm sooo enjoying everyone's photo's they are adding to the database. One of my favorite pass times is to sit and scroll through the pic's in the database!

Lin, I have added Winterberry Holly which has red berries and Cardinal Candy Viburnum which has red berries and also highbush Cranberry Viburnum which has red berries. Could be any of them.

Ann, if you want to see pictures that any of us have added just mouse over our user name which takes you to that persons profile page. There is a list of pictures added there as well as other things. Just look at the pictures if you want.
