Plants for your Small Nursery Business

4 years ago

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.

If you find these videos useful, there are a few little things you can do to help me out:
