I find it helpful when potential bidders express their interests in things to bid on. What do you want to see up for bid this year?
 
I'd dearly love to see a Drosera ramentacea go up for bids.
It looks like a capensis, and seems to want the same care.
But they're pretty difficult to find stateside.

But I don't expect to see one so I'll just buy a couple of T-Shirts to support the cause.

I plan to talk up the auction on some general houseplant FB groups so I'll probably donate some beginner Drosera for them.
 
always looking for rare neps, would be an aggressive bidder :)
 
Since I am doing a new greenhouse I would honestly love to see a few medium to full grown plants as a choice, as well as some good, fresh seeds if anyone has any to sell. Seeds for various species of Nepenthes, butterworts, and sundews.

Mexican Pings! I lost a bunch that I sold here in previous years. Hopefully some of those peeps have some extras they can auction off.

You know, I think I am too on the succulent/cactus thing. Particularly things that look Stapeliad-y. Like Huernia zebrina, or these beauties:
Stapelianthus madagascariensis --> click here for pic
Tridentea gemminiflora --> click here for pic

Maybe a mexiping like NaN too. Something long and grabbity like moctezumae probably.

I’m a Sarr nut. I’ll be hunting both Saurus and Waccamaw.

I'm still getting back in the game, so I'm looking for the basics again. I'm growing in a new (to me) environment, so I'll be looking to experiment with things are aren't /too/ rare mostly.

I'd love to see basically any Drosera and Utricularia.

moss and small ferns

I'm on a strict space budget right now and looking at an upcoming move. So i will be looking at mosses and small ferns for small container gardens
