Exciting announcement from our friends at the Plant Mapping Meetup group:  Please join us for our upcoming Spring Plant Mapping Meetup on April 11, 2024 at 1:00pm EST (please note that meetup sometimes likes to be confusing about how they show times – 1:00P EST is the official time of the meetup!). We’ll have a packed agenda including a show-and-tell on Houston Botanical Garden’s tree flagging project, some updates on our plants to migrate to a new software platform to host the group, an introduction to a new leadership structure falling into place, and of course some open conversation time to bring up topics of your choosing. You can register here. We hope to “see” you soon! ... View more

Hi! Welcome to this brand-new community! My name is Laurel Hill. I'm a horticulturist who is adding GIS to my tool bucket so I can better curate living collections at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden. I'm new(er) to GIS and it's great to know there's a community of other newbies out here. Hopefully, we can teach and inspire each other! I'm kicking off this community introduction post, so I'll share a picture of sunny azaleas and my dog Coco Bean. I'm glad you're here!   ... View more
