Recieved this note from the seller.Seems they didnt get what they originally
paid for,,,,,,,,,

We purchased it from I think the grower was called ###### and that is how
they sold it to us. That's all I know for sure.

I deleted the growers name to avoid any slures on anybodies reputation.

Roth dosent have mottled leaves.Could it be a hybrid with roth as one
parent?

that is pathetic! Ebay is such a joke. Too bad they are not held for some
responsibility in these type of issues...some book sellers there are even
worse.

Ebay can be held responsible to the point of your getting what
was described... Now you have to prove the two terms are mutually
exclusive of each other. You can challenge his merchandize to
Ebay and ask that the scam be closed. Sometimes they do react.

Looks like it was an honest mistake . Just recieved this from the seller.
Thanks again for the info. We have revised the ad and cut the price in
half.

Caveat emptor.

AMAZING....it grew 2 inches since this morning. When I first looked it was
a 10" leaf span.

I emailed the seller too and told him it wasn't a pure roth. I also told
him a roth needs to be quite large before blooming so that plant had a
couple of years before it will bloom.

It grew 2 inches in less than a day....at that rate it will bloom before the
next weekend!

Does Ebay have a fraud department? The seller should be reported.
