Title: Over coming fear of rejection
Post by: tjshorty on January 24, 2020, 05:43:58 pm
I finally made up my mind to take the chance at being told "No".  I was at the store when I seen the owner and I just asked if I could sell some of my house plants there.  He told me to take a photo of the plants and talk with his produce manager.  The options are they could just buy the plants our right or work on consignment.    How about that.  Now just to talk with the produce manager to work out a plan.  I am so excited about this prospect.  I can finally get rid of some of these plants and not feel bad about it.  I hate to just throw them out.

As a houseplant lover myself I have to ask. Why would you throw some of them out?!!?

Running out of room.  It's a spider plant that just keeps producing.  The  mother plant is huge and every now and then just so that I have room I cut the babies off and plant them.  I have over 30 still and they are producing also. Its those that I am trying to find homes for.

Thank you.  I was more excited about this yesterday than I am today.  I won't give up on the idea.

Good for you.  New homes for your plants and a little extra money too.
