Hello and welcome to my world.

I am a gardener who sees people as flowers and flowers as people. Let me explain. I attribute a person's personality, personal style, and mannerism to beautiful flowers and I name my actual flowers after the people that give the plant to me or if their fussiness or easiness reminds me of the plant. For instance, my husband would be a pear cactus. He demands little attention and too much care may actually cause him harm. He is prickly on the outside, yet he surprises me and delights me with his stunning, sunny, yellow, dazzling smile, (he has one dimple) just like the bloom of the pear cactus.

I just purchased a new camera that operates my nerves instead of me operating it. I hope to be inspired and encouraged in this wonderful group of gardeners. I am a gardening author and may wax poetic from time to time.

I love the description of you husband - a pear cactus - I know a few people that I could give the names of plants to because of their personalities too.

I hope you manage to get to grips with your camera soon as we love to see photographs here at GardenStew.

Welcome to our forums.

Thanks for the warm welcome. I just mentioned to my girls that I am the only person without a flower named after them in my garden. Maybe by spring someone on this site can determine my personality and pick a flower that they think I am. Are you up to the challenge? I would be honored.
