About Me
I'm a full-time lecturer in biology and a part-time PhD student in vertebrate palaeontology. I combined the two passions in a container garden containing largely plants that existed in the Mesozoic era. This is that garden's story.

Oooh! That's pretty!
Very nice! I love the colors. Hope the park plants are doing well.
I don't think the plants are enjoying the very severe winter at all! I think José the Agave is probably now only good for tequila, which is a real shame, but once it snowed it was almost impossible to move him out of the greenhouse. Hubster put his back out moving him into the greenhouse! I think that one's toast, and I anticipate losing at least two of the three remaining proteas.
