My name is Simeon. I have always loved green and growing things and when I started working outside in landscaping a few years back I began to take more of an interest in finding out what all these things were that I was coming into contact with. I started getting into tree id, then "weeds" and wildflowers, then spiders, and ultimately I have "caught the bug". I want to know what all these wonderful things are that grow around us and why we should try to keep them around us.
