Dear Friends,

After a great run of more than nine years, TinkersGardens.com has reach an financial impasse requiring some major changes in our business.

Having dedicated thousands of hours to making the Daylily Database what it is today, we are not simply going to let it fall by the wayside. We are however seeking alternative hosting solutions since our current hosting situation is costing us more money than we now take in through ad revenue. If successful the Daylily Database should be back up and running by the North American spring bloom season.

The technology used in creating the database is an aging mishmash of differing technologies, hence it may be necessary to completely rewrite the front end using newer techniques. That may take quite some time.

Again, we wish to thank so many of you for your patronage and support over the years. Many of you have become good friends. It is with truly sorrowing hearts that we pull the plug on this project that sprang from a heart full of passion for the flower we all so love.

On January 30, 2012 TinkersGardens Forums will be closing it’s doors. We wish all of you many blessings in this new year and in the years to come. We hope that the services we have provided over the years have had a positive and lasting impact in your lives as gardeners and fellow tinkerers.

Humbly we remain truly yours,
Donald and Jason
