Sean Patchett, known online as Garden Guy Muskoka, shares his multifaceted experience in horticulture, from landscape work to science communication, emphasizing the critical importance of context in gardening advice.
• Context is everything when sharing gardening information – advice must be tailored to location, climate, and specific situations
• The internet contains overwhelming amounts of gardening information, requiring critical evaluation and testing
• Working in landscapes requires a jack-of-all-trades approach – from plant care to construction skills
• Well-designed gardens must consider long-term maintenance and how plants will grow over time
• Master Gardeners organizations provide hyper-local gardening advice from trained volunteers
• Approaching gardening with humility allows for continued learning and growth
• Anecdotal evidence has value in horticulture when properly contextualized
• Making mistakes is an essential part of gardening – it's how we learn and improve
