You... Or anybody that wants some very nice plants cheap. Just trying
to help out a friend of mine who will be sorely missed when she finally
closes her doors. Anything I can sell for her is something I won't end
up tripping over in my greenhouse! *grin*



Is there a list there with pics of what you or she is selling? I found a
page with prices and some pics.... is that it? It's a bit confusing.


It is confusing even to me... There is no list that I know of. On my
website I am selling a few of her plants that I picked up last weekend.
That would be the Dichea glauca, B. digbyana, Schom. wendzellii (or some
reasonable spelling thereof), L. anceps, and C. skinneri alba. Each one
has a picture. And yes, I'm keeping at least one of each of those, I'm
not stupid... *grin*

There are lots of other plants that I didn't buy last weekend. I think
most of the species are gone (I took them, nyah!!). But a lot of big
cattleya hybrids and phals. And after this weekend (open house and big
sale), there might not be much left. I'll probably go back over there
after this weekend, and take most of the remainder. I'll fill up the
aisle and stack them and whatever, and put them outside for the summer
when it gets nice. Those are the plants I'd really like to move, since I
don't have space for what I have already... Hence, they will be dirt
cheap. And dirt cheaper by the dozen.

Now, if anybody has a hankering for really big oncidinae, I need to move a
few hundred to make space for the insanity mentioned above. Dirt cheapest
by the truckload on those.

Making sense now?


Yes! How cheap is "dirt cheap?" I'm retired and my husband is
semi-retired, so we've been pinching pennies until they bleed. :^)
