Oh, and before I forget, he's Gary of "Pat's Pets." I was honored to meet he and his gentle wife, Pat. He has his own series of hybrids of some genera.

I asked him what it was that really excited him now, and so he introduced me to his Smithiantha hybrids. They are all named after Mammals, mainly african. For example, 'Pat's Pet Lion' and 'Pat's Pet Giraffe.' He has two unique (first in the world)plants that have morphed to have seven, not five lobed flowers. I fell for 'Pat's Pet Jaguar.'
Did I mention his prices were great!? $15.25 and I am taking three awesome AVS and a Smithianthus back to Colorado.
(By the way, I'm Kenton -if we've not met, seeing as how this forum is growing gangbusters)
