      <p><font size="4" face="times new roman,serif"><u>News</u>: The
          winter and spring were more tumultuous than I can convey --
          family illness, repeated storm damage, computer problems... on
          top of the calamities of 2023. Catalog updates and plant
          propagation continue to be delayed. We remain in a difficult
          position with most of our time taken up navigating obstacles,
          nursery repairs/renovations, and working to stabilize &
          salvage plants battered by the extremes of an increasingly
          manic climate. The good news is we are making <i>some</i>
          progress in the nursery this past month, we finally updated
          the Specimen Plant List, and things are on track for a
          fundraiser-auction later in July. Further updates coming soon!</font></p>
