Take a job at a nursery and see if running a nursery is really what you want to do. Lots of jobs look like fun until you do them for a while. Once you start you will be tied down to the business, like it or not. Al

Be prepared to spend allot of money. Be prepared to work 18 hours a day for months on end. Be prepared to not sell everything you grow.

YouÂre going to have to create your own market.
"How do I know what plants to sell?" Other then the basics you don't. Even if they sell well this year does not mean they will sell next year. Research nurseries in your area and see what is lacking and why.

Can you build a business on your property? Is it zoned properly or not zoned at all? Are there any residential restrictions on file at your local county that you are un-aware of?

I could go on and on but there are many other threads like this on GW.

BTW I wouldn't have it any other way.

Get the book So You Want to Start a Nursery by Tony Avent. Read it cover to cover. It's a terrific resource by one of the best nurserymen in the industry.
