About Me

My photo
Rebecca
I am a professional and recreational horticulturist with a passion for identifying plants. My specialty is in trees and ornamental garden plants, though I aso have experience in native dendrology. I have spent my whole life in Oregon but am now residing in South Carolina and enjoy traveling and identifying plants all over the U.S.A. I obtained my degree in Horticultural Science at Oregon State University and have industry experience in commercial landscaping, botanical gardens, arboretums, university grounds, greenhouses, and agricultural work. There's nothing I like better than identifying trees and plants, so send me your photos and questions!
