What a wonderful man. I’ve seen photos of Hazel on his FB but did not know the backstory. Thank you.

Re: phillip watson leaving cottage farms/qvc

So sorry to hear he won't be back on Q....bad decision Q! I will think of Phillip every year while enjoying the GIANT blooms on the hardy Hibiscus beauties I purchased from him.....bigger than a dinner plate and the color.....!!!! He was a joy to watch and listen to and will be missed.

hazel is his gardeners daughter. her father also worked at qvc i believe (maybe with philip?). philip had been very close to the family for a number of years now. after her father passed away after a long illness and extended time in the hospital, philip had promised him that he would look after hazel and her mother. he has kept that promise. i think hazel is now a young teenager.......she is so lucky to have philip in her life. he even has a go fund me page for her education.

@sunshine45, thank you for this update on Phillip. I always enjoyed his shows. He seems like a real gentleman and I love what he has done for Hazel, just such a heartwarming story. God Bless them both.

I have a 6 year old Totem Pole plant from Robertas. It used to sit on the microwave. I had to re-arrange my kitchen because the plant hit the ceiling. Don't know where it iwll go next when it hits the ceiling again. I live in NYC and have no problems w/ either company as far as growing their plants.

Another one bites the dust.  I wish him luck.  Wonder if her will turn up on Evine?

So long, Phillip!  You do have great hair and you will be missed, big time.
