I've one, maybe two, plants that I reckon are worth marketing. Any
recommendations as to whom I should contact. (I've found PlantNet UK and

Stewart I've emailed you some information on a company that specialises in
this sort of thing. But it's worth pointing out to you and the group that
any new plant must not have been sold previously or even given away to
anyone else. A good and interesting new variety of a popular plant can be
quite an earner for its breeder but potential patent (Plant Breeder's
Rights) must be carefully protected before it's registered.
