I was at a conference that included a show just this past weekend.
I wasn't in a position to go to Philadelphia last weekend, even if I had
known
about it. Where and when is the next one? I'd love to go, just to meet
you,
never mind the plants. ;-)
Long Island and New York City are too far for me to go to. As it is, I
spend
too much time commuting to Albany & Rochester for bonsai.
I looked up pictures of both those species on the Web, in case I meet one
on a
dark night. Ugly! I know, when it comes to succulents, the uglier, the
more
people love them. I'll stick with Lithops & my Operculicarya decaryi.
What's with that family Petopentia got split into?
I thought I had a big Punomatic in my back pocket, but the succulent
growers
are worse, with a Magazine called the Baltimore Areole, not to mention
those
two nurseries in California, the Epicenter and Cereus Business.
