homer, what is the name of the plant to the right of that photo? I have about 4 pots of it here..

Yours is really nice, mine hasn't gotten that big YET. But I bet it will this summer.

Lin, Please tell me how you have the soil arranged in there so I can copy you. *blush* you know the best compliment is when someone copys you, right?
As far as prices on some of the plants at the Garden Show, it was really ridiculas, but, people will pay big bucks if they have moola right then and there.
Why, they had a small Fig Leaf Ficus much smaller than mine for about 70 bucks. I was astounded. The prices on the Monstera were reasonable I thought at around 35.00 for a nice big plant.
This one was a private owners plant, it was very large, and he had it as a decoration for his sales area..
