Summary

I'm an individual with a special interest in plants. With my educational background being in Horticulture I desire to learn more about plants and agriculture related topics! Although I have a formal education I don't know everything. I would love to expand my knowledge on plants and plant care, especially with types of plants that were not covered in college.
