Root Propagation
I developed a love of plants as a young boy, helping my father in his yard-of-the-month winning front yard. I hated pruning roses, but everything else was so amazing to me.

When I realized I could make a whole new plant from just a piece of another, it did something permanent to my little mind that is still with me today.
