    I flunked the test, but learned a lot reading the answers. 😇

    Great quiz! I got 2 wrong-devil palm and the darwin quote-just didn't know them. Good job, Andy!

    I’m with Kim as far as the quiz, but happy to know just some of the answers and get educated.

    I look forward to the monthly newsletters that come directly to my inbox and brighten my day.

    Thank you so much Andy Hurwitz for creating and Scott Zona for formatting and Dean for posting!

    If it was tropical hardwoods, you'd do much better :) :36_14_15[1]:
