Me too!!!!! I got mine at the San Fransisco C&S Show and plant sale last year, can't wait to go again!!!! For Mother's day we're going to the Great Petaluma Cactus Garden, It's huge, they carry so much there, my Desert Rose I got there over 15 years ago just bit the dust, it was getting so big, stupid frost.... , I'll take pics, Annie
