"Us" is Fiona Dudley. I created this website to provide helpful information about the native plants of these wonderful Southern Appalachians. I'm an amateur, just like most of the people who visit my site. I've lived in the Asheville area for seven years, and the previous decade near Atlanta - spending most of my weekends hiking the trails of North Georgia and Western North Carolina. During that time, I joined the Georgia Botanical Society and the Southern Appalachian Botanical Society. I began observing wildflowers (and nature in general) over twenty years ago, in my homeland of the Connecticut shore. There is absolutely no commercial connection to this website whatsoever. It is a labor of love.

I do my best to make it accurate and keep it up-to-date. The current information is accurate, though there are many additions I'd like to make. I am now a professional web designer, and find that my own site is the hardest to update. I welcome any questions or quibbles you might have - please e-mail me at fdudley@weaversites.com

Thank you for visiting!
