I hope to inspire people to look at plants differently and see their gardens through new eyes—to treat gardening as an adventure, to embrace the freedom to explore a new type of plant, and then to plant it just because they want to. Why not surround yourself with plants you love? Who cares if they’re not supposed to be planted together, might eventually crowd each other, or aren’t everyone’s cup of tea? It’s your garden and you should love it; you should be having fun.

I’ve been writing about plants and gardening on my blog, danger garden, since 2009. I’ve also penned several magazine articles, perhaps to the horror of the college professor who chastised me for using comic-book English. Writing is how I share my plant passion with other gardeners, and those just discovering the world of plants. However, I am first and foremost, a gardener. I want to grow all the plants—the more unusual the better. I also believe it’s possible for a plant lover to have a cohesive, well-designed garden.

Remember, there's always room for one more plant...
