🎥Interview with Jim Rupe from Monrovia Nursery

Hey gardeners, Ken Lain here! This week on the Mountain Gardener, we welcome Jim Rupe from Monrovia Growers, a true plant expert! Jim shares his journey in the agribusiness, from tending Christmas trees to representing Monrovia across Arizona.

 

We explore the challenges and rewards of growing plants in our diverse state, from the high desert to the mountains. Jim highlights the importance of acclimation and choosing varieties that thrive in our unique conditions.

 

We also get a glimpse behind the scenes at Monrovia's operations, with its four locations across the West Coast, Georgia, and Connecticut. And of course, we touch on our favorite plants, from the show-stopping blooms of Wisteria and Crab Apples to the reliable beauty of Euphorbias and Lilacs.

 

Join us for this insightful conversation with a true plant pro!
