Nice,

  I'm getting N. spec. x veitchii and N. bongso at the end of next week. Now I know what to expect!  

  What size of pots did you use?

Brian
 
i use 6" for all three but the burbidgea may have need a 4" better because it only came with 4 leaves so it looks small.  you should hurry becasue theyre not too many left after srduggin posted his up,  seemed like eveyone got them after that post.

I have them saved for me. I was out of town for a couple weeks. I knew that they would sell fast once people found out how great they are!

Brian

well i just place a bid for what it was for 45.00 i think and a max bid for 45.50 that was all but nice that no one else bidded on it. nice size for the price but i wonder why nobody bidded on it. is it not that interesting to have a truncata highlander? i know that the prices may come down for the highland version of the truncata but not the black/dark burgundy version of it. god i want one so bad! but this will do for now. i have a truncata already but the lowlander version so at leat i have a companion for it. i grow the lowlander outside as a highlander. slow growing of course when a lowlander goes outside as a highlander. whats another good highlander sp. that i should get?

oh, i first thought it was a lowland and it looked like it too(too lazy to read), another seller sells lowlands for $5-10 and the same size, a common neophyte mistake, so fc3srx...[ may i just call you lbc or fc3?]

hows it there in california ive been longing to convince my parents to go west but that fault/ megaearthquake/mount helen think scares us,

here is more stripping to the peristome. i find the highland one to grow pretty fast! anyone else has one out there that could post a pic?!
my lowland truncata grows slower also because its outside.

Ah, sweet. I've never bought any CPs on Ebay before. Do you usually get pretty good prices?
