eclayne said:I've struggled with this for a while for the reasons you've mentioned Chelle. Even going to the best sellers sites basic exposure information never tells the whole story. Hopefully greater detail is available. The issue as I see it is so intertwined with local climate that a more than short blurb explanation is generally required. "Afternoon shade"? where is the grower located? This is why I try to remember to always add my hardiness zone and location when posting a comment.


I see your point, Evan. The information might be a bit too generalized for every grower's situation when it's listed as a data box item.

Since your location and zone are already a part of your profile, maybe I should simply program the system to display that information alongside your name when your comments appear in the database.



This would help with comments posted by members who have that information filled in on their profiles. Thumbs up
