Ha, I didn't do too much damage, but Friday was really busy and some of the growers really moved a lot of stock. The ones that are a ways away weren't able to restock. Of course the Huntington always has a full table.

So cool! Congrats! You must post a photo when it's open!

I forgot to post this which explains the photo: I'm back. He got in Bantel's Sensation, S. suffruticosa (big multiple fans with offsets), patens and various trifasciata (as he pointed out, nothing I don't already have). I almost bought a silver Hahnii that was different from the others there in that the margins were more eggshell than buttercream (i.e. whitish than yellowish) and the green was different, more uniform, maybe a shade deeper, but it varies according to light exposure (so many leaves packed in where they overlapped were very pale green/silver. It just looked different to me, but chances are it will be there next time. I opted for a very nice, bright green canaliculata (I have a duller, bigger canaliculata) and another schweinfurthii - so there, that fixed yesterday's journey with nothing to show for it but a pot, <grin>. At the moment, I really like the tubular leaves that go vertical straight out of the ground. S. fischerii is another of those - love, love, love that one.

Many of them just said "species" on the entry - I suppose that is what you do when you don't have positive ID? One of those upright fans was pearsonii, probably the pics further down. The one you're asking about I believe did not give a name, just "species." The second one you asked about: cylindrica volkensii - you can just about read it on the pink entry. To me it looks like juvenile fischerii.
