Queen of the Night in Canada

Ottawa, ON

Hello,

I have been searching for one of these for quite some time but I am not able to find a seller in Canada. Does anyone have any suggestions.

Thank you

PS. I did use the tools available here to search for vendors in Canada and there were none. I was hoping someone here would be able to offer some suggestions.

Thanks again.

Somebody in the Canadian forum posted this a while ago - only place I know of - so far - in Canada with epies. Maybe she can help you.

OK!

Here is the story which others may find amusing.

In a little village just on the north edge of town is a very nice gardening centre. I go there several times a year not just for plants but because they always have neat 'stuff' and also I do dog sports at a nearby arena. A year or so ago a friend and I discovered that they have 3 giant epies hanging in one of the greenhouses. I had never noticed them before because I was not 'into' epies at the time. So after I saw
K's request and because I was in the area anyway I dropped in and asked the staff if I could get some cuttings off the mother plant.The staff know me because they do workshops for the Hort Society which I organize.
So I asked and she said oh just go take some off one of the small pots ( which were for sale) and handed me a pair of scissors! SO there you have it - 3 nice cuttings of
Queen of the Night.
Incidentally I was stunned to see when I walked in that the 3 giant mother plants were for sale - $250.00 One is a DK ( pic attached from last year) which is currently in full bloom, one an Oxy and one a NOID red. Still trying to figure out how to get it to my house and where to hang it - an impossible task but still fun idea to play with.

Wow, that is so interesting. Thanks so much for doing that for me. Also, great of the staff to offer up cuttings. The kindness of others never ceases to amaze me!!

Update: My little oxy is doing well, and I'm so happy to have one. :) Thanks again fancyvan!

I am sure I am a long way from flowers but so far so good. Not sure what the shoots are, but growth is good, right?

Oh thankyou wren107.

I guess I shouldn't have re-used this old thread as I now have one courtesy of fancyvan but it was nice of you to post. :)

My boss has a green house full all colors and sizes. I am so envious of you all as mine are growing slow and all are white.
