Dear Friends,
After a great run of more than nine years,
TinkersGardens.com has reach an financial impasse
requiring some major changes in our business.
Having dedicated thousands of hours to making the Daylily
Database what it is today, we are not simply going to let
it fall by the wayside. We are however seeking
alternative hosting solutions since our current hosting
situation is costing us more money than we now take in
through ad revenue. If successful the Daylily Database
should be back up and running by the North American
spring bloom season.
The technology used in creating the database is an aging
mishmash of differing technologies, hence it may be
necessary to completely rewrite the front end using newer
techniques. That may take quite some time.
Again, we wish to thank so many of you for your patronage
and support over the years. Many of you have become good
friends. It is with truly sorrowing hearts that we pull
the plug on this project that sprang from a heart full of
passion for the flower we all so love.
On January 30, 2012 TinkersGardens will close its doors.
We wish all of you many blessings in this new year and in
the years to come. We hope that the services we have
provided over the years have had a positive and lasting
impact in your lives as gardeners and fellow tinkerers.
Humbly we remain truly yours,
Jason and Tinker
Founders TinkersGardens.com
