About the Author
Blythe Camenson's curiosity about plants began as a child, but her first garden took a while to get off the groundshe dug up most of the plants to see how the root systems worked.
Her curiosity was more than satisfied while writing this book; she got the chance to talk to dozens of experts working in all areas of horticulture and plant science.
Blythe Camenson is a full-time writer of career books and the director of Fiction Writer's Connection, a membership organization providing support to both published and waiting-to-be-published writers. She has taught courses on freelance writing and conducts ongoing novel-writing workshops.
Camenson earned her BA in English and psychology from the University of Massachusetts in Boston and her MEd in counseling from Northeastern University, also in Boston.
She has traveled extensively and lived in the Middle East for many years. She has now settled in South Florida with her two cats and lives surrounded by semitropical greenery.
