"I grew up in a family that gardened, both vegetable and ornamental. From my earliest memories I was, you might say, surrounded by plants. I was fortunate to grow up in a rural environment where the woods were my place to play and explore. I guess I really never thought about gardening as a vocation until I went to college and was introduced to the field of horticulture.”
—Jeff Lewis on how his interest in horticulture developed
