<br>
It was not my intention for 4 months to pass between emails, or for
important announcements to be made last minute, yet here we are...<br>
<br>
My summer was completely derailed by the unexpected death of my dear friend—ethnobotanist and author Jonathan Ott. <br>
I’d known Jonathan for 30+ years, we’d been closely collaborating on <a><font color="#0000ff">a project to publish a deluxe edition series</font></a>
of his books, but his sudden death and lack of a will has thrown years
of work up in the air and the future of the project is uncertain. I
spent much of the summer navigating logistics around his death... we
sincerely hope to honor our friend’s wishes and preserve his legacy by
eventually publishing the entire series, but it could take years to
clarify things with his estate... <br>

Despite considerable effort and periodic plant auction-fundraisers, we
are faced with the fact that we still have not had adequate time or
means to make sufficient progress with the crucial tasks of installing
irrigation and completing renovations throughout the nursery and
conservancy-research gardens. As largely a one man show, the daily
responsibilities of caring for thousands of plants in an increasingly
erratic climate, while doing my best to keep up with the website,
emails, packing orders, etc., leaves little space for tackling such
extensive additional projects—especially with the challenges of my
persistent, post-COVID <a rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" href="https://sacredsucculents.com/support-our-endeavors/#note-1"><font color="#0000ff">cognitive impairment</font></a>,
not to mention the relentless stream of other crises we’ve navigated in
recent years. Our lack of time for these vital, large projects,
particularly the irrigation, has seriously curtailed our propagation
work…while we <a rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" href="https://sacredsucculents.com/support-our-endeavors/#note-2"><font color="#0000ff">continue to lose a worrying number of irreplaceable plants</font></a>
each season. Mitigating against extremes is no easy task with the broad
diversity we cultivate. It’s now urgent that we focus our full efforts
on such projects as are key to stabilizing, salvaging, and propagating
the myriad rare & endangered plants in the nursery & gardens.<br><b><i>

I’ve know Jonathan for over 31 years, we met when I was barely 19
and his impact on my life has been tremendous. His death has been quite a
blow and, among other things, demolished many of our plans for the year. In addition to the loss of a close friend and mentor, Jonathan
had proposed the publishing collaboration partially as means to help
fund critical nursery renovations here, yet his unplanned passing means
that I may never see a return on the countless hours I’ve invested in
the project... I spent much of the summer navigating logistics around
his death. We sincerely hope to honor our friend’s wishes and preserve
his legacy by eventually publishing the entire series, but it could take
years to clarify things with his estate... </font></span></span></span></span><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:14px;line-height:150%;"><span style="line-height:21px;"><span style="line-height:21px;"><span style="line-height:21px;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:14px;line-height:150%;"><span style="line-height:21px;"><span style="line-height:21px;"><span style="line-height:21px;"><font face="times new roman, serif" style="font-size:large;">To stay informed of developments, sign up for the email list - <a rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" href="https://lists.sonic.net/mailman/listinfo/jonathanottbooks">https://lists.sonic.net/mailman/listinfo/jonathanottbooks</a></font></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br>
