 I was recently told NOT to add the 'quote' marks when entering parentage information and I realized just now that I probably did it today on a few Neoregelia entries. Those entries can be declined and I will re-enter the info later. So sorry. ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| You've also added the genus to the cultivar names in the parentage field. The genus is added only when a species is the parent. For parents that are cultivars, just enter the cultivar name without the single quotes or the genus. |

| Oh my ... my age must be showing again because I do think that sometime recently, either you or Sue told me about adding/not adding the genus to parentage entry. I probably should take a "vacation" from data entry and give y'all a break. I have quite a few submissions pending, possibly with too many errors. ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| You're not alone, Lin. I find it very hard to add things to the database correctly. I'm amazed at all the work our plant admins do! Handcrafted Coastal Inspired Art SeaMosaics! |

| Same here. I have trouble with all the registered trade mark and patent names. |

I too, am amazed at the amount of work our administrators do for the NGA plant database and and I'm so grateful for their hard work in making it as accurate as possible.  I just have to  myself every time I create additional work for them. ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |
