Starting NOW, and continuing to December 31 (this year end) we are offering 35% OFF the price of all In-stock Live Tropical Plants. This offer excludes the Christmas Plants on this flyer to the right, because they are already specially priced.


We will not be bringing in any more plants from the greenhouse before year end.  However, we have a good selection of quality plants in stock now. So call, email or pop into the store to enquire about the varieties for which you may be looking.

We're Back, and Ready to Go!

Linda and I have just returned from a 7 day cruise of the East Carribean. We recently celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary and this is the first extended vacation that we have taken together in many years.

Our cruise included stop overs in Puerto Rico, St. Maartens and St. Thomas.  We played the tourist role and came back with hundreds of pictures including lots of native tropical plants; some being from the same families as those we use in our Plant Maintenance accounts.

Botanical Garden, Conguas, Puerto Rico
We had a tour of the Botanical Gardens at Conguas, Puerto Rico,  that has only been open for 2 years.  Our tour guide was Magdahlia, one of the driving forces behind the creation of the Botanical Gardens and her passion for the Project resonated clearly.  We were very lucky.

I will be using some of the pictures in blog postings here, so check back often. I will also use some of these  pictures in my speaking presentations to the Horticultural Societies and Garden Clubs.  Our next speaking engagement is scheduled for January 25th at the Guelph Horticultural Society with a brand new topic that I'm developing - Cultural Practices in Maintaining Your Live Tropical IndoorPlants. I am pretty excited about this!

Right now, our store is getting ready for Christmas with lots of gift ideas for the Plant People in your life and we are still running the Insecticide Promotion for you and your plants. Check our web page at www.plantsforall.goldbook.ca for details and to get your 20% OFF coupon.
