Rob has Special offerings always changing and hwne Eunice got this plant he had a few other beauties Special at the time gosh I wish I could have grabbed them !
I don't see the same PENTADINIA for sale but he does have for sale along with a few other Specoals ! Not sure how often he changes his Specials. So it is most likly until their gone grab them while you can :))

PENTADINIA COLUMBIANA would be a good plant for me !! Rob says it is easy, fast grower , under lights, windows or hanging outside in the summer ! I enjoy hanging plants or plants period on our porch :))
A species with a cascading habit suitable fro growing in a basket . And pink blooms with green tips sounds so cool.
So anyone liking Eunice plants he has this for only $5.00 While limited supplies last
He has a few other Specials too !

Starfly - your bloom is beautiful.

Oh boy, I've ordered the mini gift for myself. I am out of control and need to get a grip on my self. I ordered it for me. On the order, I wrote in comments "the person this gift is going to likes dark color flowers over white and pastel" -- meanwhile, I didn't want to tell them I was ordering it for myself! Allison, all I did was come to the page to look at the pic of the flower and look what happened. Cedarnest -- did you buy it too?

Maureen I'm so happy for you ! You deserve it :)) I am very tempted but if I did I'd be spending bill money and Hubby has not worked for a couple months sense he cut and broke his foot/toe. So I better not. I am really trying not too.
Please post pictures when you get yours ! Its a great deal YIPPEE !!

Dunedin, FL(Zone 10b)

You know $49.00 with express shipping is wow a good deal ! Epress winter shipping I think starts around 22.00 with Rob. I better stop looking at it. I wonder how long I can extend bills. lol

Northeast, NE(Zone 5a)

Oh Maureen,We must be twins : ) I went online earlier and I ordered it too! I just couldn't resist.Christmas gift from me to me.LOL
Nancy

Oh you too ! Merry Christmas :)) You two desrve this wonderful gift !
If I spend the bill money I'd have to lie and say it came from Santa lol
Please take pictures when you get them !

Dunedin, FL(Zone 10b)

Nancy did you get a PENTADINIA COLUMBIANA too ! I'd go for it Rob would put it in the same box no extra shipping :))

Northeast, NE(Zone 5a)

I wish I would have but I didn't Allison.I could kick myself now.I already received the order confirmation from them so I think I may be to late to add one now : (

Dunedin, FL(Zone 10b)

OHHH you could call Rob and ask him if he could add it into the box for same shipping cost :)) It's a good price for PENTADINIA do you think ? I would never pay winter shipping but if it could go in same box :))
And you will be getting their extensive, full-color 2007 catalog next spring.
I have ordered from there for years and never got that :((
