Cool

I really wanted to be at this but I had work

Oh, and nice D. prolifera. I've always wanted one of those. How much did you pay for it?

 

[nepenthes_ak]

Yea I asked about the coconut... sweet...

To bad they get like 80 feet..

 

[droseradude]

prolifera was 12

The coconut was like 6 feet tall i think
must be long time before theyre 80

 

[nepenthes_ak]

I think its like 7+ years...

Maybe I could make a Bonzi Coconut Palm Tree?

[CP2k]

The mystery ping is gypsicola.

Why do I miss all the best meetings? Looks like y'all had a good time. I like the first ping and I like the welwitschia.

The unknown succulent is a Haworthia, but I forget the species name, oretty closely related to H. truncata/

Hey Peter, we did have a nice time. It definitely was a hot one, but we tried to stay cool in the shade house.
Ed did a nice job of giving us the grand tour of the complex.

See ya next time!

The other Peter.

There are never any of these things in Michigan. I wonder how old that staghorn is. So far thats the biggest one I have seen in cultivation, but I have seen bigger ones in Australia. And is that a P. 'titan' I see behind the P. gigantea, not the P. agnata, the one in front of the black thing

. Also what is that strange looking plant above the coconut?
