Mike McGroarty has replied (with title "Mike's take on this idea.") April 14, 2009 ...First of all, I think it's a great idea for people who "have plants to sell".... If you don't have any plants to sell just yet, then you really shouldn't be any part of this. We've been through this before where I suggested that people should specialize in certain plants and eventually you would be the "go to person" for that particular plant. Everybody raised their hand and said; "I'll specialize in this." and then didn't follow through.... I was opposed to the idea at that time because I knew what the out come would be, and I was right. Most of the people that raised their hand didn't follow through with the required action. So the same thing applies here. What you should really be doing is jotting down Janice's name, Email, and mailing address and consider her a strong source for plants as soon as you have some to sell. I know how Janice operates. If I were to Email her today and say; "I have 500 grafted Harry Lauder's Walking Sticks, do you think you can move them for me?", she is going to immediately try and find a buyer for them, then buy the plants from me. Now if the plant is rare enough she'll probably just buy them up immediately knowing that she can move them. There's nothing in the world wrong with what Janice is doing. She's very, very smart and an aggressive plant marketer. But in order for this to work she needs to hear from people with plants to sell, not from people who aren't to that point just yet. Janice Myers is in a position to buy plants from you folks because she and Patty are aggressive go getters. They have only been in this group a little over two years as I recall and they have done incredibly well, because they take immediate and massive action. (Actual start-up date July 8, 2007) Study what they do. If you have plants to sell, then by all means get in touch with Janice and see if you can strike a deal. If don't have any plants to sell, get started and grow thousands of them. If you're not sure what to grow do the easy stuff, and just do 200 of each. Anybody can sell 200 of anything. Good luck Janice and Patty with your venture and to those of you that will eventually do business with them.

11/2/08 I ordered about 500 of plants from Janice and they were packed well and received great. Shipping takes a while from Janice to me; these were great as always. Pots removed, rootballs great, no way to move in the box during shipping, moist but not wet. Janice takes a lot of possibilities into consideration when she is boxing them and her decisions seem to always work. They look healthy and happy. Thanks Janice Andrea

Janice, I have been to your site several times and have gotten much information. Just reading about how you got set up and I also have learned a lot from the pics on your site. (p.s.) Magpie is so cute! Donna

May 9, 2010 The crape myrtle arrived Thursday in great shape. I have them all potted up in 1-gallon containers and they are settled in just fine. I don't think a single leaf dropped between the time they left your place and the time I finished potting them. Excellent plants and excellent packing. I was thrilled to see such nice big healthy plants for that price. Thank you for a wonderful deal. I expect to plant at least one of each variety here and then hope to resell the rest in another month or so. I'm just now getting set up with my own backyard nursery and hopefully, one day I'll be able to make a living at this. Edna
