sure count me in I might get lost though..................LOL I am going to do a map quest to bonnies house to see what exit I am suppose to get off on...
ely
larry,
i'm not sure what exit bonnie is at, but i'm at 31 (canal rd). i could meet y'all at the flying j, well that is as long as its not a problem : )
msjen, one of my friends are in charge of taking cuttings for the plant sales there. He told me the tropical sale that was held a few weeks ago netted a whopping 10,000 dollars plus in sales! Must've been a fun time for everyone.
I have no idea I will get up with bonnie, I am so far behind... =)

Is it going to be a vendor sale?
ely
No, it is at the greenhouse again, like the other one, but sortofa end-of-season sale, or that's what they said last time.
Janet

Hey, I only bought six or seven plants, three of which were little $2 plants. I left plenty. Glad I didn't have a wagon - but I am correcting that before another trip. Count me in for at least one of the sales - will decide after I get back from a short trip to north Louisiana this weekend.
