Alexandra

The youngest member of our blog team, Alexandra is living proof that talent knows no age. A qualified botanist trained in France and Switzerland, author of an extensive thesis on the cultivation of Pteridophyta, and a former staff member at the Bordeaux Botanical Gardens and Villa Thuret in Antibes, she has also practised permaculture on an organic farm. And when she’s not writing for promesse de fleurs, she plays the accordion and sketches… plants, of course!
