The even Better part is being in a community where they know just what you are talking about. It gives poor hubby a break from trying to hide the "clueless" look when I'm speaking Plant.

Mark admits that with him you can almost see the information going in one of his ears, and out of the other!
I know I have problems when I am naming plants and answering questions on gardening shows long before the presenters do!

My husband tries to show off at the Nursery by naming a few flowers (only the simple ones) He would never admit to his hunting buddies that he knows what a nasturtiam is or a sweet william or a peony! He asked me one day "How do I know this?" I think he absorbed it through osmosis!

Very possible Deanna Especially if you are in close proximity of a gardening addict for extended periods of time
