Howdy!
I am purchasing a home that belonged to a horticulture professor, Dr. Novak. The gardens are elaborate, but have not been well maintained recently. I would love some help identifying plants, and creating a basic plan for maintaining the gardens. Do you know of any individuals or groups that could provide this service?
Thanks!

Hello, Katie.
I'd be happy to see if some of our Master Gardeners would be interested in making a site visit to see what could be identified. Some of us still keep in touch with Dr. Novak and if plant(s) can't be positively identified - with your permission, that could be an option. As I understand it, he is living and working in the Houston area.
The easiest way for you to reach me is thru my work email. I'm officed in Brazos County Extension, so, if you would please email me directly, so I have your contact info:
