“I AM not so plant blind anymore,” says garden enthusiast Peter Chong. “Previously, if you asked me what a philedendron was, I wouldn’t have had a clue. But these days, I could be walking on a city street on in a forest, and I would probably be able to spot one of these beautiful plants and identify them correctly! It’s become so much fun for me!”
Chong, and his friend Lone Wong, are small business owners who call themselves “That Plant Doctor”, plant specialists who love to help all “plant parents” grow in their green thumb journey.
