My name is Luc Georges Bulot and I am a senior researcher in Paleontology and Stratigraphy. My interest to plants is both as a amateur botanist and a gardener... I have started many years ago with cacti and succulents that are hardy in my garden located in the inland of South East France (30 kilometers from Avignon). I found pretty quickly that bulbous and rhyzomatous plants are the best companions for my cacti and succulents. I therefore mostly grow botanical species with special interest to Iris, Tulipa, Narcissus, Allium and Gladiolus... I hope to learn from the whole of you and when possible contribute from my own experience... Best wishes, Luc
