FACEBOOK: TALBOTT NURSERY AND POULTRY

Well this is my first attempt at blogging here on Blogger.com!!  I have a daily what I call a "Blog" on Facebook(see link above)...and discuss questions asked of me on either of my selling sites on eBay or the above website or any sent in or "commented" on Facebook....My interest is in plants, as well as other things, but mostly PLANTS-after I retired from teaching Communications at the Community College level (Jr. College-for my era).   TALBOTT NURSERY AND POULTRY (see link above) was started as an online storefront on eBay in June of 2011, with six ORCHIDS like above, and they sold QUICKLY!!!  I bought 100 more from Hawaii and most sold in about six weeks....wasn't making a living by a long shot, but certainly was seeing a "nitch" that could, with a little massaging, be filled!!  Since that time I expanded to Bougainvillea, Hibiscus and Lantana for about six months; and then went to the Houston Nursery and Lnadscape Expo this past summer and have gone... what my mother would have called.... "HOG-WILD".... I have added most everything Plant-Wise that one finds at a Retail/Wholesale Garden Center.  LUCKY...YEP....got to say though that in my life I have been---both LUCKY AND A HARD WORKER!!!  Believe it may take both... and still life is a cyclical endeavor....SO... if you have any comments or plant questions...I may not know the exact answer right off the bat, but will find it for you....one might surmise that I am full of the "blarney-stone", but at the same time the one thing I have learned and relearned in my 66 years, is that one needs to be HONEST AND TRUTHFUL in talking with folks.  If you don't know an answer, say so....cause if you make one up....sooner or later ....you're gonna be found out!!  Well this is a start....didn't include GUN CONTROL, OBAMA-CARE, FOREIGN AFFAIRS, and GOD KNOWS I DIDN'T INCLUDE A DISCUSSION ABOUT CONGRESS....BUT maybe someone out there is tired of CNN and FOX NEWS...and simply wants to TALK PLANTS!!!!!!!!! OR we could discuss any of the problems of the day!!  Chuckle.....
