<< Did anyone order any Akai Ryu VFTs out of the latest CPN from Atlanta
Botanical Gardens? If so have you recieved them yet? They said they would
ship them a week ago Saturday and I haven't gotten mine yet. Any help
appreciated. >>

I received my 'Akai Ryu's' yesterday (8/2/96). I expected extremely small
plants from the TC process but instead received 1-2 inch diameter plants.
Although a little dry, it is obvious that they are in good shape and were
treated well.

Since this 'sale' of rare plants may become an annual thing, I'd like to put
my vote in for next year's sale: the brilliant all-red Sarracenia flava
pictured on one of the CP web pages (ahhh - which page??? - sorry forgot)
growing among typical flava's.

Also, anybody have any 'toothless' VFT's to sell or trade?
