I think I see why you're having a problem. If you hold down the command key (, 
⌘, splat, whatever) and click the title bar of the Safari window, it will show 
you the whole URL. There's also the awkward ⌘LCV — do it with one hand, if you 
can.

When I go to https://www.yewdellgardens.org, I get a secure connection with 
128-bit encryption for much of the page, but some of the pictures on the page, 
which may come from another server, are not encrypted. Other browsers — perhaps 
even older versions of Safari — flag a page as encrypted, if there was a valid 
encryption certificate associated with it. It looks like Apple has tightened 
that up with newer versions of Safari and maybe it doesn't show the page as 
encrypted if there are any non-encrypted resources on the page.

I just tried it with Chrome and got a lock with a caution sign on it, so I 
guess Chrome has a middle ground — which I like better.

I just tried Firefox — under Linux — and it also has a caution sign — again, a 
better solution than that of Safari.

I don’t  have an older version of Safari with which to try it.
