My Name Is Lowell Halvorson

I specialize in the demand side of horticulture. Why do people buy this plant, but not that plant? A lot of answers tumble out, depending on who buys and why.

For businesses, I build focused messages, based on a plan, and deliver them to interested parties. To build awareness, I use a toolset of data analysis, photos, design, and writing.

    My Toolbox of Skills

    When I take on a client, I learn their business and market well, bringing my technical, creative, and horticultural skills to each project. You’ll find that I:

    • Read spreadsheets like newspapers.
    • Photograph to illustrate the points.
    • Write with a snappy style and clear focus.
    • Grow what I cover—my photo garden is zone 7.
