Are any of you using Plantfind.com? A couple of years ago I used it a bit. This week I went and looked there for those yews. Only problem: They seem to want a subscriber fee of over $400 per year to see the results of a search.:wha: Anyone know more about this?

Plantfind sends me an e-newsletter about once a month, but I have never actually been to the site or for that matter really even read the newsletter. Its not a service I would need. So I guess my answer would be no I don't know more, sorry. It does sound like an unreasonable fee though.

Here in Florida we have a monthly publication called the Plant list. It is Free and has 800 # for signing up. All of the growers list their prices and availability. When my boy went off to college I put a fax machine on his phone line and I get about 10 Fax's a week from growers.

Tuesday this week Plant find dot com called me trying to sell me there service. Salesman had a fast answer for every objection I had. He talked me Thur a demo on the web. I was not happy with site and when he told me the price $408 per year I laughed him off the phone.

Now the name Florida comes from Spanish and means "flower land" we grow year round. In July and August installs slow way down on a normal year ( not this year). You can buy plants for next to nothing. Just drive down Krone Ave in Homestead. Plant prices are not the important thing here. they are the cheapest thing in the landscape.

To bad these Florida plants don't grow up north. In fact plant of Miami won't grow in Jacksonville. "Bedrock Plant finder" is a pay publication out of Davie Fla. and I don't get it either.
