I've been buying my greenery from Mickey Jr. up on the corner of Fountain and Sycamore (near La Brea) since the early 1980's. Never met Mariska, though. He's got great plants and accessories, at a reasonable price.
I saw Mickey & Jayne from a distance in Atlantic City in 1962 or 63, they were on the beach demonstrating a line of exercise equipment, they had drawn a big crowd for it. Mickey's muscles for the girls, Jayne's everything for the guys.
