Hello Tom in Florida,
I hope you don't mind me contacting you like this, but I didn't want
to clutter up the list with a question like this. You wouldn't happen
to have the address for Marie's Orchids, would you? I checked the
sellerlist on here, and "Gardening by Mail", and can't find it. I
figured I could check the St. Pete phone book, but I don't have one
handy, and would like to get some idea where it's located. Also, do
you have any idea what they sell? I got the impression from the
sellerlist that it was very little other than nepenthes, but it could
be out of date by now. Thanks. --CW
