Plants for your Small Nursery Business
This is how I decide which plants to sell in my small nursery business. The goal is to stay out of direct competition with the mass market plant retailers. That way I can charge a little more for "hard-to-find" plants, and my customers get the benefit of shopping a more interesting assortment than the "usual suspects" at the garden center. It's probably a little more than you need to know about the way my mind works, but no apologies on my part: you can always skip forward in the video. To go straight to my planning spreadsheet, you can nudge ahead to around 9:15.

PRUNI
pruning-how-low-can-you-go
When I perform a heavy pruning of a shrub in my garden, it can be a little nerve-wracking to cut low into old wood. Will the shrub recover from such a hard pruning? There are some particulars around the right season and the variety of plant, but my general experience has been that a healthy deciduous shrub will recover quite nicely from even a deep pruning. There are dormant buds down low on the stems of most shrubs. In this video, I'll show you three examples of the results of my heavy pruning this year and last.

MY RO
my-rose-stems-turned-black-(after
Black is the color of dead tissue on plants - so the fact that the stems of my roses have turned black is not good news. There's also a lot of reasons is could happen, some more concerning that others. In this case I'm seeing: whole stems from the tips to near the base uniformly turning black. I also know that we had a cold stretch that was more severe than normal for our climate. The damage is more severe on tender Hybrid Teas than on the hardier old garden roses. All of this taken together allows me to conclude that it's simply cold damage, and not some disease or root rot issue. In this video we'll look at some examples, and I'll also discuss some of the early steps in pruning and maintaining roses after the winter.

PEACH
peach-trees-under-plastic
Here's our crop of peaches from trees grown under plastic at the back of our greenhouse. Winter protection isn't really necessary here: peaches are plenty hardy in our zone 8 climate. It's more an issue of protecting the trees from the ravaging effects of peach leaf curl during our coot, wet spring. The extra heat from the greenhouse does push along ripening I suppose too! I've seen other local gardeners succeed with peach trees under an overhang against a south facing wall.

TESTI
testing-plant-id-apps
I installed and reviewed 4 Plant ID android phone apps: Leafsnap, Plant Lens, Picture This and Pl@ntNet. Overall, three of the four apps were fairly accurate - and I was really impressed with Pl@ntNet in particular. I initially tested them identifying 4 photos saved on my phone to see if they could correctly ID down to genus and species.
The test subjects: Rudbeckia subtomentosa, Eryngium giganteum, Cornus kousa, and Asclepias incarnata.

SAINL
sainlogic-weather-station
This is my overview of a 5-in-1 Weather Station sent to me for evaluation by Sainlogic. I can definitely see the advantages to being able to monitor real-time temperature, humidity, wind speed & direction, pressure and rainfall will offer to my growing decisions. I especially like the customizable alarms for when conditions go above or below thresholds. Thanks to Sainlogic for sending the weather station. Here are their links:

BUY P
buy-plants-like-a-grower
When nursery growers start plants, they want to pick from a wide selection of the newest and most interesting plants. Isn't that what every gardener wants? For many home gardeners, though, your options are limited down to the "picks" of your local garden centers.
Whether you're a cut flower grower, a small farmer that wants to add some perennials to your farm stand, an aspiring backyard grower, or just an avid plant lover who wants to see *all* the options, this video is for you. I'll discuss the different ways to add a wider selection (and better pricing) to your plant purchasing. I'll also discuss how teaming up to pool orders with other small growers is a win-win for all involved.
Now, the specific supplier info in this vid is obviously based on the marker I know: North America. Nevertheless, the basic options would be similar wherever you go: seeds, bulbs & bare root, cuttings & plugs. So I hope you can get something out of this no matter where you're joining us from!

Roses or peaches? That's the trade-off in growing space. Oh well, I have the whole rest of the farm for roses - and Lisa loves peaches! They turned out great.
