Want to get your tradescantias identified? Need help with a sick houseplant? Looking for general care advice or recommendations for the best plants for your situation? Have questions about taxonomy, botany, cultivar registration, or the technicalities of my research?
I’m available for one-to-one consultations, from anywhere in the world via video call (or text chat if you prefer). You can choose either a ten-minute or thirty-minute call. For every call I’ll send a written report to summarise what we talked about, including any identifications or care advice I gave, and anything I needed to look into after we spoke.
10-minute call
£10
A quick chat, to identify a few plants or answer simple care questions.
30-minute call
£25
An in-depth chat, with plenty of time to identify lots of plants or discuss care questions in detail.
If you happen to be based in or near Machynlleth, West Wales, I’m also available for in-person services!
If you want me to identify your plants…
I’ll need a good clear view of each plant, well-lit and not silhouetted. I might also want to know:
- Where it came from,
- How long you’ve had it,
- What growing conditions it’s been in,
- Whether it had any names or labels.
If you want help with a sick plant…
I’ll need a good clear view of the plant, well-lit and not silhouetted. I might also want to know:
- What symptoms you’re worried about and when they started,
- How long you’ve had the plant,
- Your watering habits,
- Where it lives, including lighting and temperatures,
- Whether you’ve given it any fertilisers, pesticides, or other treatments.
