My son did biochemistry at Exeter.
Oddly, given this forum's focus, I managed to dodge any botany courses (I did biochemistry instead) - it wasn't until I discovered a passion for edibles that my black thumbs turned green!
I did fashion and Designology?? I also dis a few years of by floristry part time in the evenings when the boys were babies.
SC, how can you not like it?? It made for easy wired sugar flowers for my cakes.
What I want to be is a dahliologist. All my last dahlia cuttings died. I will try again tomorrow
