oh they grow all over the place down here, I just heard somebody say that propagating them was hard so I figured I'd give it a shot. turns out it's really easy so I've got like four of them now, though my backyard has probably 200 ft² of them growing naturally.
I've always fantasized about selling my props to local plant shops, but I never have a plan when I start propagating something. I found out how easy sage was to propagate, bought one plant and now I have a dozen and I don't know what to do with them
I also start and prop way too many plants sometimes without a real plan for all of them... I say just offer them up somewhere! We've posted about them on some of our social media sites, or put up little "plants for sale" flyers at a nearby gas station and our town library. Even if you're not going whole hog and going to market it would be a great way to share your work and maybe swap for some more awesome plants to play with.
