plant history

so many plants have a history,
they all have a history, but we don't always know it,
anyway, if you look into that history you can often find out keys on how to make them grow better,
let's take celery,
it was bread from a bog plant,
most people don't grow it that way anymore,
and it has evolved to deal with it, 
but it actually thrives in very wet areas,
it can even take more heat than normal if you have it soaked,
so just that bit of information about it's past helps a huge amount when figuring out how to grow it,

so go look up the history of each plant to get fun clues as to what helps.
