Don't know if this is the right place to post!
Just awesome, Gail! Do you know the name of the one in the third post? I MUST have one of those!!! I love anything black! :) But that is the coolest!!!
Maybe someone can help me but I think it looks like an alocasia or calathea..........someone help misty and me, please.
That is P. 'black cardinal' in your first photo.
Just one of a hundred baskets of hoyas of all kinds
Thanks, Cicada...............I should have known that you would known that first one. She had them in size up to 4 feet tall.........amazing.........but I couldn't figure out how to keep anything alive until spring.........my front porch is crunched now with the space heaters going........
Please, oh please, someone help us on that one! I do have a Calathea Medallion and I LOVE it! It was a small plant, but I love getting them that way and watching them grow! :)
I can't believe the prices she has on her stuff, just amazing!
Third photo looks like Alocasia x amazonica.

Oh Gail, a 4 inch pot of that would be just what I would want! If you would pick me one up I would GLADLY reimburse you!!! I haven't seen anything like that here, YET! LOL I almost bought a small pot of that squirrely looking Hoya, but it was like 15 or 16 bucks!
I want more Orchids, too, just not willing to pay 15-18 bucks for them.
Gessiegail....I'm gonna guess you were in Greengate....am I right???
Oh, thanks for the ID on the EE, Cicada, I added it to my want list! :)
Gail, you know you make our mouths water when you do this, right?! LOL
Our Orchids are TINY for what they charge, it is unreal! I couldn't afford postage if I had you get everything I wanted! HA HA HA
I have been giving right at 7 bucks for all mine in 4 inch pots!
