Meet John Clements, Horticulture Manager, who tells us about his role with the San Diego Botanic Garden. As the Director of Gardens, he handles the day to day care of the plants, designing and installing new gardens, maintaining irrigation systems, and managing people. John mentions how there are many great local resources to go in this career path. When John arrives at the gardens he is immediately inspecting plants, looking at the gardens from a visitors point of view, raking leaves and managing people.
