Finally, the Show Quality Plants Photo Gallery is now open. Current sections include the usual suspects; Succulents, Cactus, Agave, Caudiciforms, Pachypodiums, Lithops, Bromeliads, etc. I will be loading more pictures daily so keep checking back.
I am also loading two special sections for all my in-ground gardeners and hobbyists, Desert Landscapes and Bonsai & Water Gardens, that should be fun, so many choices. I will start off the xeriscapes with my own. I just finished it late Spring 2009 so it hasn’t matured yet but it is a great start if I do say so myself.
If you have a desert landscape, in ground bonsai garden or water garden feature that you would like to share with our readers you can do two things. First, and probably the best choice from an SEO aspect, you could make a comment on an existing picture within the gallery with a link or ping back to your picture on your blog or website, (I will check it out and then OK your comment) or if you do not have a horticultural blog or website you can just send me an email with your picture attached and I will just add it to the Show Quality Plants Gallery.
In the mean time have a look at the pictures I have loaded and leave your comments. If you have some time cruise on over to the Show Quality Plants Store and take a look around.
Welcome serious collectors, plant enthusiast and weekend gardeners. My name is Michael Klasno, my e-bay friends know me as the West Coast Plant Guy. I have been growing bonsai for about 25 years and propagating some very nice aloe, cactus & caudiciform plants for the last 5 or 6 years.
As you can see we are just building the Show Quality Plants Catalog, it should be ready in a week or so. Categories will include; “From the Potting Bench” for seedlings and root cuttings, “Growers Choice” with hold backs from the last season and “Specimen Plants.” with Super Clones and one of a kind plants. Later I will include some of our favorite growing products, tools and of coarse our “Perfect Drain” soil mixes.
In addition to marketing my plants I built this site in an effort to exchange information for there cultivation and propagation. Our goal is to help educate the novice succulent & cactus grower. That is where this blog will come in and we welcome your constructive comments.
I also want to showcase some mature specimens from collections around the world. In that pursuit I have added a Gallery program that should be ready for you to load your personal galleries soon. More on that in a later post.
I will try to get a Calendar program running soon to keep everyone on the west Coast updated on events in this area of the country. so as you can see, we have a lot planned so stand by and check back often.
