Customer Reviews
Love this Podcast
Absolutely love this podcast and look forward to it every Saturday. Stacey and Rick have taught me so much about plants. My day part is “Plants on Trial”. Keep up the great show and I will be listening.
Real life advice and so informative
Wonderful realistic advice and tips
Enjoyable mostly
I love all the different plant descriptions and details. I don’t love that they have a money tree ad sponsorship. Please Promote plants not detrimental loan policies. It’s contradictory to their message of plant positivity and helping the ecosystem. Money Tree is like a sap sucking pest..once they get a hold of you it’s very hard to get free. Don’t let your listeners get infested. Take care of your listeners so they can take care of more plants. It’s all related… Thank you.
