The popular Twixwood Newsletter, Leaflet, by Tom Kimmel.

Fall 2018

Download: 2018 Fall Leaflet-web The purpose of this issue of the Leaflet is to act organized and to make money, or, more precisely, to make money by being organized. I notice that the really successful nurseries are in the specialty liner business; that the medium successful nurseries are in the commodity plant production business; and […]

Early Summer 2018

Download PDF The purpose of this missive is to sell plants. We are assuming that anyone receiving this newsletter is busy working and thus does not have the time to read long and rambling messages; besides, our Twixwood social media personage, Cassandra, has me writing a weekly blog. I have received sparse instructions on how […]

Spring 2018

2018 Spring Leaflet I may have been too subtle in the past and so I will remind people that the purpose of this publication is to make money for the nursery. Sometimes we have to admit to the occasional error in judgement, something difficult to do when you are as sensitive as I am I […]

Winter 2018

The alert reader may come to several conclusions after glancing at this list: one being that we have a lot of […]

Early Spring 2016

I usually begin my Facebook postings with the statement “We are still married” accompanied with a photo of Dianne and me standing out in the middle of the daylily field while it is in full bloom.  That way there is proof that we are still married and that we are still in the nursery business.  […]

Winter 2016

Rudbeckia newmannii ‘Summer Blaze’ is a new plant. We were told at one time that this was superior to the regular Rudbeckia fulgida ‘Goldsturm’ and we have long-since forgotten why.  I work on the theory that is a plant is a named variety that is asexually propagated and not sexually propagated that it has to […]
