American lady's garden business with a twist.
(From Philippine Daily Inquirer)
Byline: Vicente S. Labro, PDI Visayas Bureau
TACLOBAN CITY-There are many things that make Marjorie's Garden stand out when compared to the garden shops found in Tacloban and in some Leyte towns.
For one, the place is spacious and located on a hill that overlooks the picturesque San Juanico Strait with its famous bridge on one side and rolling hills and a tall mountain on the other.
Also, Marjorie's Garden is setting a trend in plant business as it offers more than just greens but accessories, landscaping, plant rentals as well.
This is aside from its coffee shop that also sells novelty and gift items for customers who want to relax and bring home something other than plants.
The place is about 18 kilometers from the city proper of Tacloban and can be reached in 20 minutes by land. It is just a few hundred meters away from the foot of the picturesque San Juanico Bridge, on the Samar side.
