I really like what you had to say about weeds--that you should get to know them before killing them. I feel the same thing, very strongly. That was how I got started learning urban plants. In my little yard in Boston, I wanted to know what everything was--it pretty much all turned out to be bad: bittersweet, black swallow-wort, knotweed, etc. But that was in the days before garlic mustard.

Happy to have you on board!

I love your artwork. It's nice that my stepdaughter has started recommending stuff to me--and you're the first.
