WEST LAFAYETTE – David Robinson has a yard full of flowers, but one out shines all the others. In his backyard is a Celosia that grew from seed and has a flower bigger than he’s ever seen at 18 inches across. “I didn’t do anything special to it,” Robinson said. “I just put mulch down. I actually thought it was a weed at first.” He’s also pretty proud of his Gladiola that features double blooms. Robinson enjoys gardening because he has back problems and it helps keep him out of a wheelchair.

About the Author ()

I started my journalism career in 2002 with a daily newspaper chain. After various stops with them, I am happy to be back home! I graduated from Coshocton High School in 1998 and received a Bachelor of Arts in Communication in 2002 from Walsh University. I also earned several awards while working for daily papers, including being honored by Coshocton County’s veterans for the stories I wrote about them. I am honored and ready to once again shine a positive light on Coshocton County. I also am the proud mother of a little girl named Sophia!
