I also do not belong to any plant societies.
My garden intrests lie in the design and layout of plant companions that give a pleasant atmosphere here. This can be done without knowing the minute issues that encompase the world of plants.
I learn a lot about my plants by reading posts on the 2 garden sites I regularly visit. I believe I am an average gardener and have no intrest in striveing for Master Gardener status.I believe it would demand more responsability than I care to be involved in. Besides I have seen Mastergardeners who are not as knowlegable as many of the gardeners on this site.
