Hi everyone

when we usually take plants to swap we take along in a few bags and then spread out across some trays that Ivano had on hand.
Bucket would be fine too

Sounds like it will be a good day

Hi everyone

I am not long back from another great plant swap.
The response was not too bad about 10 people turned up and we had some great plants.
The best collection of plants goes to Mike, what a collection it was and so many too.
Was great to put a couple of faces to the nicknames on the forums.
I managed to add another two crypts to my collection (thanks Chris hope I got your name right)
The highlight of my day was the beautiful Crypt Blassi that Syd brought along.
Oh yes and those amazing cakes and pizza Ivano had made.

Thanks everyone for coming and sharing your plants.
Thanks Chin for sending a huge pile of C.Balansae even though you couldn’t make it.

A HUGE thanks to you Ivano, for organising it and such amazing hospitality.

Yes thanks everyone for showing up and especially mike for that awesome range of plants, I haven't planted my fennel/ dill yet *Hygro balsamica* It was great to meet some of the guys and trade plants.

And yeah graeme it's Chris I'm suprised that walkeri went so quickly, good luck with the rigidifolius too.

Just a question which one of mikes plants was the willow grass?

Chris- saj

[Graeme]

Hi Chris glad i got your name right.
the willow plant was the one with the very long thin strappy leaves coming off a central stem that was ridgid.

That help?
Mike should be on soon and will give you the proper name......


Thanks for the aponogeten.Its planted and looks cool!

good to see everyone had a great day. Our boat trip was "interesting", our esteamed captain dinged the $1M 43 foot boat while manouvering in Fishing Boat Harbour in front all all these people eating their lunch, how embarrasing :roll:
