Tim Burton

Tim is an owner of AquaFlora Nurseries.  He started the company in 2001, and has been the general manager ever since.  He graduated from the University of British Columbia in genetics and cell biology, which gave him the knowledge to pursue a career in tissue culture.  Combined with a love of all aquariums, it was only natural for him to start an aquatic plant tissue lab.  Click here to send Tim an email, (tim@aquafloranurseries.com).
