Alright, why didn't someone tell me?

Why didn't someone tell me that DG Mktplace is addictive? I'm getting into some serious trouble fooling around over there. LOL

I am so busy receiving plants that I have ordered, I don't even have time to sell on DG, but I always make time to buy!!!!!!

Am I ever glad you had a lil bit of time last week!!!! LOL

YOu are cute, GrowHappy! I think I have about 10 days of hard work with what I have ordered plus taking care of potting up streps that are babies. I have 4 trays that keep screaming, "Mommy, put me in a bigger pot".....................

GrowHappy, I figured if it's going to be a burden I have to bear, you can bear it, too! LOL ^_^ My intent was to sell more than I buy, but it has worked out the perfect opposite of that!

could have told you that lol. we are all doomed. lol it's fun thou.

Well, I'd rather buy from my DG buddies than a stranger any day! ^_^

I love to buy from DG Marketplace as the plant material is so much bigger than on ebay or a vendor. But..........I must confess, like Rain, that I intended to sell so I could buy. My buying amount is much larger than my selling amount (lol)

I am unpacking much dineros for plants from Gary Out of Africa right now..........

LOL, Rain- it's sorta like selling Avon. At least it is for me. When I was an Avon rep, I bought more of my own product than I sold. I was my best customer. LOL

Gail, what did you get from Gary????? I heard he has some new streps.

I'm soooo there at this moment. Cedarnest will attest. LOL

Sure...........I will tell you what I got from Gary...............let me get his invoice............I threw the invoice away and the gro lights are out........will let you know tomorrow for sure.

I found them on a master list..........so I copied and pasted, GrowHappy!

I received the box yesterday and was so happy with what I got. I had so much fun cutting the leaves into sections and potting them up. I have 4 trays of leaf section cuttings and a few little dixie cups. I can't wait until they make new babies!!!! Keeping my fingers crossed that they all survive.

Now, for my leaves from Nancy. LOL I have another tray or 2 just for them.:)

Oh, and plants coming from LL(hopefully next week). I'm told the boss(assuming Paul Sorrano) has been away at a show and just got back yesterday, so they haven't pulled any online orders this week, which is how I placed mine.

Looking at Gail's list from Gary, I may have to reconsider some things. LOL

These are just my personal feelings about ordering streps. Gary has much healthier streps (at least with my last two order from LL) than LL. Having said that, no one can grow african violets like Lyndon Lyon and also LL grows so beautifully all the nematanthus, aeschytanthus and columneas. (but I haven't ordered those from gary)
I did order episcias from Gary and they were beautiful plants. I also ordered episcias from LL and they are magnificent plants.

Here.........I will show you some of Gary's streps he sent and the episcias..........
these are the episcias from GAry..

Here are the streps I got from Gary just yesterday...............

These are the Kohleria I got from Gary yesterday......................

Now...............tah dah................I will show you my streps from ebay and my precious wasp plants. Some of the wasps are ok and a nice size but then 3 of them are in 1 ounce pots........check out these poor 7 streps I paid for..................I paid more than I would have from Gary or LL............
first picture the right side of the tray with my streps...........I don't think they ever got any fertilizer as the leaves are pale green and soft.

I tend to exaggerate so know that these plants will live...........just a shock as this was my first order from ebay...........

They will live and be fine from ebay...........but no comparison to our own DG Marketplace or some of the good vendors we know.

Gail - what are the names of the episcia's you got from Gary?

OK........you know the names of the ones I got from LL because we each got stolons from the other person............

I didn't even ask for names from gAry......because I didn't care...........I just told him to send me whatever looked nice. I just like to propagate..............and I will..............Here are their names:
Back left is Faded jade. (I had that one and sold all the stolons, etc on DG)
In the back in the middle is Pink Gator
in the back on the right is Pink Panther
On the front row on the left side is My Precious (I did ask for this one)
On the front in the middle is Jim's Porcelain Doll
On the front row on the right side is K.D.'s Sapphire Ice
These are much smaller than LL but remember I asked LL to send giant plants so you and I could trade stolons upon arrival.........
