In my June 2026 newsletter, I mentioned that I’ve been dedicating more time to programming and building interactive HTML/CSS graphics to make Tropical Tree Guide more useful, practical, and engaging.

Well, one of those projects is now live: I created an interactive inventory viewer for Montura Gardens

Instead of scrolling through a long inventory list, you can now easily browse what Montura Gardens currently has available, including:

🌱 Fruit tree types
🌿 Available cultivars
🪴 Tree sizes
💵 Pricing information

And if you see something you’re interested in, I also added interactive buttons so you can text/call Hani Nunez directly and ask about availability or get on their next delivery order 😊
