A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The House Plant Forum Making Extra Money??

Someone told me of a new trend called "Houseplant Parties". These are similar to tupperware parties, but with houseplants. Some lady started it to make extra money and has a huge business organizing these get-togethers. Has anyone ever heard about this???

Haven't heard of it but it sounds great.

I have heard of these, and actually had one a long time ago. This one sold plants all potted, but they did not use dirt. they used pellet things and the pots were quite different. They had a tube that showed you when you needed to water. The plants looked beautiful when you bought them. I don't remember why but I didn't continue with it.

you know. years and years ago, tupperware had something like that. with clear windows to see when the plants needed watered.

THAT sounds like a grand idea !!!
"lady party" (that is what I called such parties because I told the girsl kids were not allowed--so it was a "lady party'

Sounds like fun .......But where do they get the plants?

I never liked attending tupperwares .Over priced ..

but Tupperwear has the best chipotle dip mix.

You mean they make a mix??????????

Yes. It's a mix and then you mix it with drained, diced tomatoes and sour cream. It's yummy.

The plants are purchased from a wholesaler. I guess it is just a traveling greenhouse.

That is interesting, but I'm afraid if I went to one of these I'd buy too much.....well so goes I guess.

Yessssssss Jiffy I still have a couple of those! and the Book that came with it,, WOW I haven't thought about that in years,,




If I went to one of those plants party I'd be broke for sure!!

thanks diane. i was beginning to think i was the only one who remembered them!

so how did I miss those tuppeware parties----I would love to have a viewable plant pot !!!---

There was a tupperware factory close to us that shut down about 8 years ago.
