I'll second Robin's sentiments, having a one-man small business myself -
the plants, growing them, making them available, meeting fellow plant
lovers, answering questions, packing/shipping, purchasing, and well...
life..., definitely doesn't leave much time for "other stuff" such as
websites. My own website in it's prehistoric state speaks to this.
Keep up the good work!

A suggestion that revamping our websites that would avoid questions and
other issues is great. But when you're a single proprietor with no paid
help and when revamping takes an incredible amount of time and resources,
it's much, much more difficult. We struggle along as best we can and make
changes as we can, but for me the last two years have been very difficult
due to family issues, a major move and other obligations. Oh, yes, and a
grandson who is no longer readily available... Given the pandemic and the
fact that we all have family, often elderly or otherwise needing
assistance, things don't happen as quickly or efficiently as they should.

Right now I'm faced with at least updating some website information and
finding the time, let alone determining the best way to do it, can be
roadblocks in themselves.

So, these upgrades will get done, but for specialist nurseries, these take
a lower priority than making sure we have unusual and/or rare plants
available for the plant lovers who support us. Personally, I'll put up with
clunky websites to get what I want, knowing I can't get a plant anywhere
else nearly as easily.
