Happy 2017! It is hard to believe we are now in our 3rd year of Connecting People With Plants.™
Since January 2014, Plants Map has continued to grow thanks to your enthusiasm and sharing our community with others. In 2016 we had over 56K unique visitors to our site and a new total of 21,448 plant profiles added by our users. We are looking forward to another great year of growing with you.
News & Updates:
- Changes to our pricing for Tags and Signs: We’ve reviewed all of our orders from the past year and have thought about the questions we’ve received from our users and customers. Beginning 3/1/2017 pricing on each item will increase, but we will be implementing a discount based on the total order price and we are also going to change to a simple flat rate charge for shipping and handling. Please visit our info.plantsmap.com/tags for more details.
