During this talk I will go over a few of the unique plants we care for in each of the three rooms, what we do here, what has been accomplished over the year I've been here (Tours, volunteers, new plants, etc...), and the future of the greenhouse (Opening it up more to the public and turning it into a conservatory people can visit/learn from).

Bio: I am the new greenhouse instructional technician, who has taken over for Mark Leigh. The greenhouse I manage functions as the natural sciences conservatory, we house plants from all over the world to help teach curriculum in and outside of classes and we propagate rare/exotic plants.
