After taking courses in horticulture, Master Gardener's Program, working in nurseries and doing some landscape design, I have image files on many plants. I am however getting a little rusty since I am not gardening as much (less land, money and time!) Therefore I hope posting plants I find interesting will give me some motivation and maybe you too!
