Allison yes the Rob's Humpty Doo- very cute AV, but that is such a silly name, did come from you and I was surprised that it bloomed- the plant is cute, small, but didn't seem to be doing much of anything and then suddenly sent up 2 spikes! I think I broke off the 1st bloom w/ my usual grace- LOL, but not too worry there is more where that came from.
You did give me that Snow Leopard, you sent it w/ your care package for those who thought they could participate in a trade w/ only a few AVs.
The guys at the sale were very nice and w/ my interest may be starting a club close to me, they need a certain number of people and I guess were short but now may not be- so excited.
There were beautiful plants on display, their larger plants- too big for dixie cups- were too much in my opinion, 11.00 to 20.00; the babies were the usual, leaves were usual. They had lots of Epescias and Streps and it seemed like that is what they were pushing, though I am not sure why- few were in bloom and the AVs were mostly in bloom and of course were beautiful. Possibly going to reschedule a show, since they had to cancel at the last moment and I will make sure to be there, I want to attend a show. Anyway, enough about that.
Regarding the Berry Splash, this was one I'd seen so many times in photos and thought hmm, that's nice, but I wasn't necessarily thrilled about it, of course seeing it in person and in such great condition was the straw that broke this camal's back! LOL. Yes it is very pretty. I think the the flower may be a double, but I can't remember. Anyway I will put down leaves for any who want.
Petrocosmea is really interesting, I didn't really know what it was, other than pretty and appealing, until I looked at the AV site and did some reading. I hope that it blooms soon. I hope they all do, can't wait to share photos!
