All of these new plants created a new market ... they became affordable and exotic plants became fashionable. |
In Lithuania, Germany, England, people didn't have large windows until glass became affordable in the 1840s. So there was no need for flowerpots (or window boxes) until then. |
There has been great growth in the landscape industry and with that people have become more sophisticated and interested in what they are putting in their gardens and on their property. |
