NASC Auction will open in...

Read the rules first :)
NASC auction is OPEN!!
None of my flowers have opened yet, but they are looking promising. Yesterday I got a huge Catesbaei
 
Nothing open here in Colorado yet either but several plants are on their way to blooming:

Awesome plants, Yann! Hey... whatever happened to the Atropurpurea I sent you?

I still have it :) It threw out a nice pitcher but a cat's tail snapped the top of it before it even got to open. It should do well this year since it stalled last year...I'll snap a pic when it opens up a pitcher.
 
That's makes me even more envious to see it in action! I lost a couple flowers as well to the cats tails but who am I to tell you this with your puppy adventures :)
 
The fence has helped. :) Only a few casualties this year - the most notable was what last year I called "Big Mouth" because of the large opening to height ratio. This year, the pitchers have grown considerably taller - which would make it not as impressive as last year - but just prior to the first pitcher opening.... WEED WACKED by tail. I would think that in the case of a cat, they might bend them and cause them to fold and flop over. I didn't think they were strong enough to wack them off.
 
Sorry to ressurrect an old thread, but mine are finally blooming! Except my Oreo, which died, so now I need a new one.
