Started Plants.am in 2006, his name in the real world is [[Raffi Kojian]].  I started gardening when I was 6 - I was hooked when I first ate a cherry tomato off the vine.  I had a small plot were I could grow a few vegetables, and started a small cactus/succulent garden.  In high school I began [[Guerrilla gardening]] with a friend of mine, and many years later was happy to hear there was a whole movement devoted to such things.  In high school it was mostly naked lady seeds and bulbs, a few blackberry roots, etc.  In college some gladiolus and freesia.  In Armenia I distributed many plants that they did not have there, including [[Pardancanda|Candy Lily]], columbines, cantaloupes, sweet corn, broccoli, sweet basil, blue potatoes, sweet potatoes, new blueberry varieties, and other goodies.

I'm mostly confined to pots these days, but hope that will change soon.  I have been collecting some fun plants though, including the following:  [[Papaya]], [[Mango]], [[Pepino]], [[Black Bamboo]], [[Freesia]], [[Oregano]], [[Mint]], [[Egyptian Onion]], [[Sunchoke]], [[Byzantine Gladiolus]], [[Chalice Vine]] and [[Rio Red Grapefruit]].
