In today’s video, we continue the tour of April growth and exciting developments on the tropical plant front with ‘MORE GREENHOUSE BLOOMS IN APRIL’ – this time over on the cooler side with minimum temperatures at 12°C.

🌺🌺👀👀ONLINE CONSULTATION SERVICE👀👀🌺🌺
To help both my ‘viewers and subscribers’ further, and also to offset the substantial costs of growing tropical plants in a temperate climate, I offer a bespoke online consultation service. Here are the service details:
1. For a fixed fee (email for details: tropicalsat53@gmail.com) I will provide an hour of my time via a zoom call.
2. I’m not pretending to know all there is to know, but I can offer the value of my growing experience for anyone who wants help either setting up a greenhouse/grow-room, with plants we both grow, or anything relating to the video content and the plants.
3. The hour can be used all at once, or split into chunks of your choosing.
4. You can book any number of hours that you need and pay for each one via Paypal at the end of each session.
Subscribers will know that I’m very open about not knowing everything, but I answer every video comment to the best of my ability and if I don’t know the answer then I do my best to find out. Two heads are better than one!
