House Plant Care and Gardening

I have been gardening and taking care of house plants since the start of 2021. I find it is my passion and have started studying Horticulture at Oregon State University. My mom and grandma keep me going in my gardening journey and I am excited every year to go back and take care of the things I have worked hard for.
