Hi there! I wanted to know how you got into gardening, what started it all? Also, did you go to school to learn about the proper ways to garden?
Gardening did not start out as my profession, but rather a life-long passion that led to a professional trade. (I was a full-time paralegal/legal secretary for 13 years, before dumping the legal profession.) No, I never went to school for my skills, and the knowledge I have gleaned along the way is due to a healthy respect for the horticultural requirements of any given environment, pushing the limits along the way and arm-wrestling Mother Nature, while implementing good design principles with color and texture.
Thanks for asking!
