Every time I hear about Botanic Gardens Day, I feel a different kind of excitement. It is because I have an intimate relationship with plants and the planting process itself. But you made sure that everything will be celebrated in a more meaningful way that's why you came up with several activities associated with it. I didn't make it last May, that is why I am hoping that you will have the same event next year. I would love to be part of Botanic Gardens Day!
