Curate an ongoing display of plants of particular interest. This position would be great for someone with horticultural knowledge and the availability to manage the upkeep of the plants on display on a weekly basis. The plant display will be accompanied by an online map identifying where the plants are located along with information about each plant. An investment of time is required initially in developing the plant list and map, but it could be a fun project for a plant-oriented person, and once compiled, it should not require a lot of time on an ongoing basis.
