Unboxing Baby Wholesale Plants - And, HOW MUCH THEY COST. 

Great unboxing video. It amazed me how well those leggy plants did with the netting. Your mother plants are looking great as well.. That would make a great tour video.

total perfect unboxing- goodnight, )

Such valuable information to know, thank you for sharing

I found some 3gal. pots on sale they were 45 cents each . I was ordering 75 pots but I canceled the order as soon as I saw the shipping price of $ 400.00 I have no problem paying a reasonable amount The liners looked good nice and green.

I live in 6a zone, and my Chuck Hayes didn't make it here, but it sure was beautiful and smelled wonderful! I am itching to start my nursery in earnest next year. I just bought 3 acres! I have several thousand plants started, but cannot wait to propagate everything I can get my hands on. Im doing a you-pick flower farm this summer, but I will work one more year, then finally retire at 67 with a full nursery...that's the plan 😊! 💚

❤ new starters

Im in 6b/7a northeast tn, and the most cold hardy, thickest, fullest fastest growing gardenias that I have are "summer snow". They are the best!!! They survived the -4° weather. I've had them in groud for 10 years now. Unfortunately, the rapid temperature drop in one day killed them to the ground one year, but I cut the stems back, and they bushed right back out from the ground. Im from Florida where gardenias were not in danger of cold damage, but when I moved to Tennessee, I learned gardenias do not do well in our winters, but that summer snow has survived the past 10 years here, even in severe winters, they came back from the ground. That has only happened twice in 10 years. If the temperature drop wasn't so fast, the bark wouldn't have split, and they wouldn't have died to the ground, but like I said, even then, they came roaring back. I don't think your winters are as severe as mine. Im on the border of 6b in oak ridge TN. I think you are a little warmer than me, so I think you wouldn't get any damage at all where you are. I tried chuck hayes and frostproof, and they died, so don't waste your time on those. The daisy/single flower type bloom ones are good too but obviously not as pretty as summer snow which is double flower blooms typical of gardenias. The single flower ones actually get more flowers so they smell just as good as summer snow though, but I prefer summer snow over all of them. Hope this helps you.

Good morning.

When a few hundred plants can become a few thousand! Great fun unboxing new plants!

Thanks for unboxing video. I like how you included the cost of shipping and breaking it down to $$ for each plant. Curious do you ever have worries about bringing in bugs , pest, things of that nature to your nursery from outside plants? Do you keep them separated just in case?

HI Savvy Dirt Farmer the radican gardenia is a ground cover and it does well in my garden. I have it growing as a border even when I forget to water them ,they still do well good luck. When is your nursery open again I hope you will show us.I LOVE the EXCITEMENT,ALL the best from Melbourne Australia.

Wow your inventory is building. Looking good. Beautiful 👍🙋 just wondering if you have talked to any landscapers for fall plantings? Do any of your suppliers handle corn stalks and straw bails and pumpkins for fall?

More hardy gardenias...Frostproof and Klims Hardy. Radicans is a great one

I was just complaining to myself about Muck Boots...just seem to not last....I will order from your recommendation... HISEA

Starting my part time nursery here in texas. Is your source the one located at Eustis florida?

Thank you for this video, especially the shipping bit. :D and the Hisea boot code, so good, got my pink ankle boots on order. Thanks hee hee.

Great video! Thank for the information

Look at August Beauty Gardenia. I am between Charleston and Columbia S.C. and it has no problem with winter here even just being a rooted cutting.

Try Frost proof gardenia it works It Oklahoma

Planting before first frost. How much time do you like to have before your first frost day to get your plant in pots? Do you have a cutoff date?

Where do you buy your starter plants?

Does this vendor sell also to individuals if they want to buy the flats? I'd be more than happy to get baby plants to start off landscapes compared to the $12-15 for buying a 3in pot or quart size online. Most that I see don't charge sales tax, so you have to be a licensed seller to order from them.

Have you ever done lantanas before? I grew some cuttings i started in late july. Theyve all rooted but dont seem to be producing leaves. I checked the pots and the roots are doing amazing but no new leaf growth. Is that normal?

On your Altro, what are the names of the black crêpe myrtles behind you?

Is there a place you can buy these types of plants at these types of costs without providing a business ID, or do they all require you to be a retailer?

Will you sell all of the plants you received, or will you plant and grow out a row to use for future cuttings? At what point does it become more cost efficient to purchase rather than clone?

Will you show what pots you put these in. Do you give name of wholesale grower?Thank you

what color butterfly bush is that?
