About Me

Ellen Honeycutt
Atlanta metro area/ Georgia, United States
I consider myself to be an average gardener with perhaps an above-average passion about it! I watched my dad putter around the yard growing up but didn't get bitten by the bug until the mid-1990's. I was introduced to the concept of "native plants" in 2000 when I joined the Georgia Native Plant Society. Fostering an appreciation for native plants is now a passion of mine, and I love to help other people learn more about the benefits of native plants. I also like to help people figure out which plants might work best in their garden.
