Germán Portillo
I have been passionate about plants since I was little. I am fascinated by the diversity and beauty of nature, and how plants adapt to different conditions and environments. That's why I decided to study Environmental Sciences, to learn more about the world of botany and the different species of plants that surround us. I graduated with honors and since then I have worked as a plant writer for different media and platforms. I love everything related to agriculture, garden decoration and the care of ornamental plants. I am also interested in ecology, sustainability and climate change, and how they affect plants and us.
