cheryljm Oakhurst, CA October 21, 2009 10:01 PM	Which one looks best? Oh my gosh, I feel like a cleb, will my photo get published? LOL
trinawitch Canton, IL (Zone 5b) October 21, 2009 10:02 PM	why not both?

And yes, your photo, or photos, will show up on the PlantFile page. :) It takes a day or so for them to go from the pending queue to the PlantFile entry, depending on how many photo submissions there are waiting in line.
cheryljm Oakhurst, CA October 21, 2009 10:11 PM	I've never done this before but I will give it a shot, thank you for suggesting it.
Joan Belfield, ND (Zone 4a) October 21, 2009 10:26 PM	Here ya go! You're published! http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/105550/
