Q. Who is Mr. Smarty Plants?

A: There are those who suspect Wildflower Center volunteers are the culpable and capable culprits. Yet, others think staff members play some, albeit small, role. You can torture us with your plant questions, but we will never reveal the Green Guru's secret identity.

Please forgive us, but Mr. Smarty Plants has been overwhelmed by a flood of mail and must take a break for awhile to catch up. We hope to be accepting new questions again soon. Thank you!

Title: Comment on Doug Shermans photography
Answered by: Damon Waitt

QUESTION:

This is actually not a question. I just wanted to comment on Doug Sherman's photographs. I am working on a native garden presentation and his pictures are amazing. I love the way he captures the flowers. I have to say he has taken the best pictures that I have ever seen. I also want to say how much I have enjoyed reading this website. It has been very helpful with my presentation. Thank you!!

ANSWER:

It is emails like yours that make us want to come in to work each day. Well, that, and the fact that we work at one of the most beautiful places on the planet. Thank you for your comments.

Sincerely,
Mr. Smarty Plants
