The frogs came first
From the early 1990s through the late 2000s, Robb was one of the largest poison dart frog breeders in the US, specializing in the egg-feeding species.
Keeping frogs meant finding plants that thrive in a small glass box, which led to orchids and tropicals. Years later the same frogs turned up again, cut into wood.
