Having mostly been exposed to indoor plant life, I have found a new appreciation for outdoor gardening. Being new to Garden Gate and gardening in general I would say I am about as novice as they come! However, the endless varieties of plants, though sometimes overwhelming, provide an exciting new opportunity for learning, designing, and understanding the relationship built between person and plant.

WHAT I’VE LEARNED...

• Not all plants appreciate the sun as much as others.
• I have a newfound joy in drawing and illustrating flowers. Their natural features and color go well with my style of illustration and it has been a blast discovering a new artistic outlet.
