I help people understand Czech botanical heritage

I wasn’t always a botanist. As a kid, I just loved being outside. My parents took me to the Prague Botanical Garden one spring afternoon, and something clicked. I spent hours that day studying plants — not because I had to, but because I genuinely wanted to know how they worked, why certain flowers bloomed in specific seasons, what made each species unique.

That childhood curiosity turned into something serious. I studied Plant Biology at Charles University’s Faculty of Science, completed my Master’s degree in 2008, and within months, I was working at the Prague Botanical Garden’s educational department. That’s where the real learning happened — not from textbooks, but from working directly with the plants, the seasons, and thousands of visitors who had their own questions.

Over the past 16 years, I’ve documented bloom cycles across all three major Czech botanical institutions. I’ve tracked how climate shifts affect flowering patterns, worked with horticulturists on conservation efforts, and written guides that actually help people plan meaningful visits. The work never gets boring. Every season brings new observations, new patterns to understand.

Now at Screenkidz, I’m focused on making botanical knowledge accessible. Real knowledge. Evidence-based articles about what you’ll actually see in these gardens, not just beautiful descriptions. Because I believe understanding the science deepens appreciation — and appreciation leads to conservation.
