BEAUTIFY YOUR HOME OR
OFFICE, WE'VE GOT THE
RIGHT PERSON IN STUDIO
FOR YOU.
ROD OSHIMA JOINS US FROM
DIAMOND HEAD PLANTS AND
TODAY WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT A PLANT SALE
HAPPENING TOMORROW, AND
WE'LL BE TALKING IN JUST
A BIT ABOUT MOTHER'S DAY
PLANTS.
WHAT IS THE THEME?
THE THEME IS
CONTAINER RAISED
GARDENING.
YOU HAVE A LOT OF
APARTMENTS SO PEOPLE
WANT PLANTS ON THEIR
LANAI.
CONTAINERIZED.
IN POTS.
IT'S A FANCY WORD FOR
POTS.
EXACTLY.
HOW CAN FOLKS GET ON
THERE AND LEARN ABOUT
IT.
IT'S GOING TO BE ON
VINEYARD.
IT'S CALLED FOSTER
GARDENS.
IT'S THE ONLY BOTANICAL
GARDEN ON OAHU.
WE WANT TO TALK ABOUT
A VERY SPECIAL DAY
COMING UP IN A COUPLE
WEEKS FOR MOTHER'S DAY,
FOR MOTHERS, MOTHER'S
DAY.
YOU BROUGHT A COUPLE
PLANTS THAT ARE -- WHAT
WOULD YOU SAY, THEY ARE
GOOD FOR MOMS.
EVERYBODY HAS A MOM,
RIGHT.
WE CAN'T FORGET OUR
MOMS.
RIGHT, RIGHT.
SO IN THE MIDDLE WE HAVE
AN ARRANGEMENT, FLOWER
ARRANGEMENT.
THAT'S REALLY PRETTY.
THIS IS A PROMPT I
BROMILIAD ORCHID.
COLORS ARE BEAUTIFUL.
IS THE PLANT EASY TO
MAINTAIN?
VERY EASY.
WHAT IS REQUIRED TO
MAINTAIN THAT?
JUST WATERING ONCE A
WEEK.
OKAY.
YOU CAN SPRAY MIST IT
IF YOU WANT.
IF IT'S COOLER, NOT IN
THE HOT SUN, THEN IT
WILL LAST LONGER.
IS THAT ABOUT HOW BIG
IT WILL GET?
THE MALABAR CHESTNUT
WILL GET BIGGER BUT IT'S
WE HAVE THIS IN A
NICE POT.
WE KIND OF CALL THIS
THE THREE KINGS BECAUSE
THEY ARE THREE DIFFERENT
PLANTS.
THEY ARE BRAIDED.
MALABAR CHESTNUTS ARE
REALLY STRONG INDOOR
PLANTS.
OKAY.
AND THESE ALSO EASY
TO MAINTAIN.
VERY EASY.
WATER ONCE A WEEK.
THAT'S IT.
I LIKE WHAT YOU SAID.
THE TREE KINGS.
@YOU CAN GO EITHER WAY
YOU GUYS HAVE PLANTS
ALL THE TIME THAT ARE
OUTDOORS.
LET'S GO THROUGH A
LITTLE BIT OF WHAT YOU
HAVE.
THIS BY THE WAY IS MY
FAVORED BECAUSE IT IS
THE INSECT MURDERER.
IT ATTRACTS AND CONSUMES
ANTS, MOSQUITOES,
ROACHES, BUGS.
IS THERE ANYTHING IN
HERE?
NO, MIGHT BE.
I JUST LOVE THE FACT
THAT THAT'S -- TELL ME
ABOUT THAT PLANT BECAUSE
THAT'S GREAT FOR
INDOORS.
IT'S A CARNIVOROUS
PLANT, INDIGENOUS TO
SOUTHEAST ASIA.
IT PRODUCES A PHEROMONE
THAT ATTRACTS THE
INSECTS AND THERE'S AN
ENZYME IN HERE THAT
DISSOLVES THEM.
LET ME SEE IF I CAN
GET THE CAMERA TO SEE
THAT BECAUSE THE ENZYME
SEE ALL THE WAY IN
THERE.
OKAY.
AND THEN WE HAVE OUR
MOTHER'S DAY PLANTS BUT
THEY ARE ALSO GOOD FOR
ALL TIMES.
EXACTLY.
AND THEN WE'VE SEEN
THESE HERE ON THE SHOW.
YOU BROUGHT THESE BACK
HERE A COUPLE TIMES.
TELL ME WHY BECAUSE THEY
SEEM LIKE THEY ARE
BEAUTIFUL AND EASY.
THEY VERY EASY.
WE CALL THEM DESSERT
ROSE.
MINIS THAT YOU THEY ARE
VERY COMPACT.
THEY ARE OUR DESERT
WATER IS RAID.
REAL EASY
MAINTENANCE.
YOU HAD IT ON THE SHOW A
COUPLE TIMES.
YOU SAID IF YOU KEEP
THEM IN A SMALL POT,
THEY WILL STAY SMALL.
IT YOU PUT THEM IN A
BIGGER, THEY WILL BE
BIGGER.
IT'S LIKE BONSAI
AFFECT.
IF YOU THINK ROD
KNOWS HIS STUFF, IT'S
BECAUSE HE DOES AND HE'S
WILLING TO SHARE
EVERYTHING HE KNOWS WITH
YOU, THE PLANT CONSUMER
BECAUSE YOU OFFER A
SERVICE THAT ALLOWS
FOLKS TO GIVE YOU A
RING.
YOU CAN COME TO THEIR
PLACE, HOME, OFFICE AND
CHOOSE THE RIGHT PLANTS.
IF YOU KNOW YOUR PLANT
MATERIAL, THEN IT'S EASY
TO MATCH YOUR SITUATION
WITH THE PLANT MATERIAL.
A LOT OF TIMES PEOPLE
JUST BECAUSE BECAUSE
IT'S PRETTY.
IT'S NOT NECESSARILY THE
BEST SITUATION WHAT YOU
HAVE.
SO THAT'S WHERE WE COME
IN.
HOW DOES NORTHBOUND
GET AHOLD OF THE PLANT
WHISPERER?
YOU CAN TEXT ME OR
E-MAIL ME.
AND THAT IS ON THE
BOTTOM OF YOUR SCREEN
RIGHT NOW AND WE'LL HAVE
IT ON OUR WEBSITE WITH
THE SALE AND MOTHER'S
DAY PLANTS.
