Man Finds Joy in Giving Away FREE Plants!
By: PRWEB
“I Love Giving Away Free Plants!”
I love to grow landscape plants from cuttngs, and I enjoy giving them away from my website. My newsletter subscribers love the idea, and it helps promote my website.

Perry, Ohio (PRWEB) January 27 2004--Mike McGroarty has a very small plant nursery in his backyard, and for a number of years from that little nursery he produced tens of thousands of plants that he sold to retail customers from his driveway. “We sold thousands and thousands of dollars worth of plants right from our driveway each spring”, says McGroarty. “But in May of 2003 we decided it was time to slow down a little, so we held our final plant sale.”
But growing plants is a passion for McGroarty, so he had to find another outlet for his plants. Today he grows landscape plants just so he can give them away. McGroarty has a popular gardening website, www.freeplants.com, and he also publishes a free gardening newsletter from that site. “I randomly select people from my newsletter mailing list and send them a box full of free plants”, says McGroarty. “My subscribers love the idea, and I get a big kick out of making them happy. It’s really a great deal of fun.” For the 2004 growing season McGroarty plans to root between 4,000 and 7,000 cuttings, all to be given away over the next couple of years.
McGroarty grows all of his plants outside, without the benefit of a greenhouse. “I took my greenhouse down,” says McGroarty. “You don’t need a greenhouse to propagate hardy nursery stock. All you need is a bed of sand in your backyard.” On his website McGroarty has a variety of pages of plant propagation techniques that can be done at home. He explains that plant propagation is actually easy if you use the proper technique at the right time of the year. And to help you understand what technique you should use for what plant, and at what time of the year, McGroarty offers an E-book on plant propagation that is a free download.
“My goal is to teach the average home gardener how to grow their own landscape plants from scratch”, says McGroarty. “That’s why I wrote “Easy Plant Propagation”. Just visit
www.freeplants.com and download your free copy.”
In his small backyard nursery McGroarty roots all of his cuttings during the summer and the fall, and then leaves them outside during the winter. McGroarty explains that small plants are a lot stronger than you think. Leaving them out in the cold all winter makes for very hardy plants.
