Anja Klaffenbach was more or less born with a love of nature: In the garden of her mother, a passionate flower enthusiast and amateur gardener, she discovered the great diversity of the local flora from an early age already. When she is not busy as a freelance copywriter and author writing books about travelling and botanical life, she can be found there, putting her green thumb to the test by exploring new and old-fashioned species of edible and ornamental plants.
