That was a bit cheeky of him, kell! It's little things like that, that can cause a bad reputation to his nursery. Silly man!

The fair was great. I was disappointed in that I didn't see anything that was really different to what I already have, and some vendors were markedly more expensive than the spring fair. However, I did get a vriesea hybrid for $11, and a couple of Neos (N. 'Aussie Dream' Cv $11, N. 'Fanfare' $11 and a large unamed Neo which I will get a pic of soon) An Aechmea pectinata $20, Vriesea vagans $8, a carnivorous pitcher plant $12, and a trio of dwarf date palms (three in a pot at 60cm tall) $7. So I spent plenty of money, but also came home with alot left over,as I have been saving for awhile. Hubby and i went out for dinner and spent it all then!

We got to the fair before 8am and were getting the pick of plants before it got too busy.
