Hello there folks. Although the shoulder season for the landscaping plant business begins around October 15th or so, I wanted to give you a heads up on a supersaver on plants: Indoor, outdoor, indigenous, rare tropical plants, bushes, trees, bedding plants and more. All grown chemical free, treated for insects or blights with all organic materials, etc.
We never charge nursery prices on plants, so the 50% is on top of already lower prices. The goal? To sell 3,000 plants to make room for new tropicals that are arriving shortly and to raise money to purchase land for a botanical garden/ nursery. We will continue to operate out of the current location for raising plants, however have another beautiful place to visit, sit, drink cold herbal teas or bottled water and shop in paridise.
The bottom line is that by shopping, based on general retail prices, you will be saving at least 60%, getting first pick, and supporting this project turned success into the procurement of more land that will be carefully cared for by myself, the Managing Licensed Horticulturist. I consider all that we do as being respectful custodians of the beauty that surrounds us.
Below is the information you will need to know in order to visit and take advantage of this great offer:
Location: 42 Flamboyant Welcome, Christiansted.
Directions: From East End: Follow the Northern road heading towards Christiansted. PLEASE slow down when you reach the Schooner Bay Market. Take a left at the gas station and before the ball park, and another left into Flamboyant Welcome when you reach your first left and the markers for a school and a bridge. Continue on the lower road until you see a LARGE WHITE retaining wall with the numbers 42 (almost at the end of the lower road). Take a left, park, and we are the only house on the left.
From Christiansted or West: Follow the main road through Christainsted that leads to the C'sted Fort. Continue East of the same road. Please slow down at the Cannegata Ball Park. At the END of the park, take the right just before the gas station. Please continue by following the directions above.
Phone: 340-513-7941
Hours: Tuesday-Friday, 1 pm to 6 pm.
Saturday and Sunday; 10 am- 3 pm
Appointments can be made for times that might be more convenient for you.
Best wishes and hope to see some old and new friends at the pre-sale sale, or during the month of October as the sale will continue for that entire month until we have reduced stock to 7,500 plants.
Warmly,
Dan G., Parnter, Managing Licensed Horticulturist

Hello there again. I just was elected to a not for profit board and will need to wait to open up on Friday until approx. 3:15 p.m. I am sorry for the change. Someone will be there at 3:15-6 pm and can handle the sales. If you have any significant horticulural questions about your plants, please call me on Sunday, and I will help you with placement of plants, watering/fertilizing needs, basic culture of the plant etc.
Thank you for your 'hoped-for' understanding,
Dan
