This plumeria grower is having a moving sale: http://web.mac.com/kevinb67/Site_7/Photos.html You could probably get a great deal on some nice plumerias.
Anyone near Temple Terrace, Florida?

I also have a plant heating pad 24" x 11" that served me well. It will be just an added bonus to the first to come get some of my plants.
Thanks
Kevin"
I don't live far from there would be interested in some of these
Thanks for the heads up Clare I'll see Kevin Saturday morning going to take them all.
Great, Dana! That's wonderful! I hope you got some great deals;-)
OH WOW Dana! I bet you got a fabulous deal!
Clare, you're unbelievable!
LOL, Teresa! Because I am an enabler? Tee hee...enable, enable, enable...
Cuz you got Dana a great deal! You always have your fingers in the pies. That's why we love you so. You continually have great suggestions for the DG members.
Thanks!
Thanks for being so nice, Teresa, and for those kind words. I'm on the hunt to find a plumeria clearance sale there in Canada for you! One of these days, we'll find a good resource for you.
LOL Fear not, Clare! I have a few Plumies that I'm tending.
I'm doing just fine! :-)
Oh, good. I know Piroche Plants is up there. I just checked their web site and didn't see any plumies. They have a Maglietia insignis that I drooled over. I had one, but mine died. It smelled so good though -- just like watermelon. I'd get another if I had the room, but I don't.
Well THAT'S interesting. I love watermelon!
Plants are home they were worth the ride he even threw pearllite and a heating mat Christmas came early here
Yippee! Congrats, Dana!
Wow! Merry Christmas to you!
Heres a shot of the trunks the really fat one is hawian sunset
Some of these grew nice and straight others need to be cut
The one laying over is a huge aztec gold needs to be cut on
Didn't loose the flowers coming home this will keep me busy for a while
Last but not least me and my little Bella, I am in heaven now! :)
Great score, Dana! You did good! It looks like some of those are wanting bigger containers already. Those ones that are leaning and that Aztec Gold can be straightened and supported with a strong stake. I use the green plastic kind from Home Depot and green stretchy ties. When you repot, you can reposition the ones that are crooked so that they are straight by shifting the rootball in the pot. I would stake the ones that are flopping over after you repot. You really got such an amazing collection at a steal of a price. I am excited for you! That's a great picture of you and your little Bella! Thanks for sharing your pictures!
Wow Dana! What a fabulous collection. You and Bella look very happy!
