Plant hunter Tim Wood goes on safari to find the unusual
New plants are fun and keep the nursery business interesting. We'd get bored if the product mix didn't change from year to year. That's why we're thankful for folks like Tim Wood in our industry. He's the product development and marketing manager at Spring Meadow Nursery in Grand Haven, Mich. Wood took some time out before the January trade shows to chat with NMPRO's Kevin Neal about his philosophies toward plant introductions, and how he goes about finding new ornamentals.
