sss, I don't think you can get a nep this large for $10 anywhere.
I bought my 'Ventrata' for $25 @ Home Depot as a large size a few years ago.
The upside to getting a xxl nep is that it will produce basals and vines quickly.
I can't believe how root bound this nep is, it is just like a root bound houseplant!
Zero what are you using as a stake for the sang? Ive been using 3' dowels but need something taller.
Hiya Nightsky-
You might want to check out the gardening section of one of them big box hardware stores and see if they have any long bamboo stakes. I've seen them before, but can't remember the name of it.
Or would a long skinny PVC pipe work well too? Just cut to size, cut a 45 degree point on one end and drive the sucker into the ground, pot, soil, a vampire, etc.
Good Luck,
E
