My passion for horticulture escalated while working in a magical secluded garden centre called East of Eliza on Gerrard St. in Toronto. I had a basic foundation of plant knowledge which allowed me to differentiate between annuals and perennials and typical plant names, but I didn't know how little I really knew. Each week I wrote down a list of plants that came into the garden centre which I felt I needed to know more about. This blog is a space that I use kind of like a sketch book and is instrumental to my evolving passion for horticulture.
