Started Plants.am in 2006, his name in the real world is [[Raffi Kojian|Raffi]]. I started gardening when I was 6 - I was hooked when I first ate a cherry tomato off the vine. I had a small plot were I could grow a few vegetables, and started a small cactus/succulent garden. In high school I began [[Guerrilla gardening]] with a friend of mine, and many years later was happy to hear there was a whole movement devoted to such things. In high school it was mostly naked lady seeds and bulbs, a few blackberry roots, etc. In college some gladiolus and freesia. In Armenia I distributed many plants that they did not have there, including [[Pardancanda|Candy Lily]], columbines, cantaloupes, sweet corn, broccoli, sweet basil, blue potatoes, sweet potatoes, new blueberry varieties, and other goodies.<br />
<br />
==My garden==<br />
I'm mostly confined to pots these days, but hope that will change soon. I have been collecting some fun plants though, including the following: [[Papaya]], [[Mango]], [[White Sapote]], [[White Pomegranate]], [[Pepino]], [[Black Bamboo]], [[Freesia]], [[Cardamom]], [[Oregano]], [[Mint]], [[Egyptian Onion]], [[Tomato]]es, Byzantine [[Gladiolus]], [[Freesia]], [[Chalice Vine]], Yellow [[Angel's Trumpet]], [[Kennedia nigricans|Black Coral Pea]] vine, [[Aristolochia gigantea|Giant Dutchman's Pipe]] vine, and Rio Red [[Grapefruit]].<br />

Needed templates:<br />
<br />
Seegenus - a template which goes on a species page telling you to go to the genus page for more info on the plant.<br />
<br />
Speciesbox - template for an individual specie to list zones, text, photo - goes on the genus page, usually a few per page.<br />
<br />
similar to above for cultivars - should look good directly under a speciesentry<br />
