The goal of this blog is to build a kind and friendly community centered on the idea that plants have very interesting lives that nobody has known about until now. By posting autobiographical sketches, ruminations, family histories, travelogues, action photos, portraits, and other creative works, your plants -- either on their own or with you as their Boswell -- can now make enduring contributions to the new literary genre of Plantlit. So, be playful, funny, serious, thought-provoking, educational,or just entertaining. And, above all, have fun!
