Apologies for the hiatus that gripped me through Winter. Will be touching more on this in the next full episode.
Apologies also for the horrendous pronunciation of certain words, for example, notoriety and Latin names of plants. (A blooper reel will be coming out with me stumbling over such words)
This lady was known in the plant world, literary world, and Art world. She also dabbled in geology and was remembered as a woman who didn't conform to the women of that era. Opting for trousers instead of the frilly dresses, hats, and gloves of that era.

Hello my dear leaflets. I hope you're excited for this mini. A little background of my I chode this lady. Before I went to Burnley College, to study Horticulture, I went to Dookie College. This was because I had wanted to do agriculture but wasn't really knowing in what aspect. I had completed an advanced Certificate in Farming the year before. Anyway, what has this to do with horticulture? It doesn't really. But as I am doing these minis on inspirational women, I thought I'd do this one on the first woman -"Long live the lady student" who studied and graduated from Dookie college.
