I've been an avid gardener for quite some time, and this is my inaugural post. Unashamedly, I confess I'm a plant enthusiast. Over the past 23 years, I've dedicated my expertise to retail nurseries in inland Southern California. For the last 16 years, I've been a Gardener and Gardener Specialist at Cal Poly Pomona. Additionally, I hold a bachelor's degree in Ornamental Horticulture from Cal Poly, graduating in the class of '85. I'm eager to acquire new knowledge and contribute wherever possible. Looking forward to engaging with this community!
