NEW! UpShoot is Now on Houzz
We’ve been watching social media trends and Houzz is a new place for homeowners and landscape construction professionals congregate online for ideas.
Houzz contributor Karen Chapman has written multiple posts on Old Fashioned Cotinus and Persian Spire Parrotia.
Are you on Houzz?
We had our first inquiry on Persian Spire two weeks after adding the UpShoot profile from a gardener looking for where to purchase the tree in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
Let us know how your business is using it successfully.
Jim and I are always available to answer any specific production questions or we’re always here to offer marketing tips and tricks to sell more plants!
