A big thank you to Jun!

Jun received a special opportunity to become our Plant Sale Intern this year. With having amazing plant knowledge, Jun propagated so much plant material for our past plant sale (April 25th), along with our upcoming one in Fall.

If you were one of the lucky ones that bought Pseudolithos, Dorstenia, Euphorbia, Adenium, or another succlents, then Jun played a big part getting this plant material ready!

Thanks again Jun! We wish you all the best!

Today is Anna's last day as a student worker after 5 years!

Anna was our carnivorous plant specialist, cared for our Begonia collection, and helped with tours, to even general maintenance. In addition, Anna built our new planters and the huge epiphyte tree, along with setting up our palludarium! Moreover, Anna has done all of our artwork for our murals.

We wish you the best, Anna!!!
