arid lands
Comments (13)I got a bunch of plants from them recently and was pretty happy with my order over all. They were all bare root and are still dormant though so the jury is still out. The only one that isn't looking great is a Cerepegia stapeleformis which is starting to look sort of rotten at the top. But just as likely from something I did to it. Here is a picture of my order after I unpacked it....See MoreMy Great Finds @ Arid Lands this summer~ Pics
Comments (16)Hi Everyone, Thank you all for the kind words! Sally, I'm familer with the mall, but so far everything i've seen online, I can find at Arid lands. minime~ There is no way you can "window" shop there! LOL! 5-6 beauties, sounds fair. ;) next time your in town give me a yell. :) Yes, the people are wonderful! I could sit and talk all day with Toni! My son loves playing with their dogs. They bring him their frisby. :) It's just the owners and a few helpers, so you can be sure you'll be well taken care of. Tom~ I know what you mean! LOL! I'm very careful, don't take alot of cash and dont own a CC. ;) I make a list from their web first, and then grab one thing that's not on the list. ;) I too love the Euphorbia. Thanks. :) The pattern is amazing on it! It's about 3" tall. Anxious to see it grow. Al~ Always good to see you. :) I'll be busy next week moving everyone into gritty mix, wanna help? ;) lol.. Josh~ Hello! and Thanks. :) The Scilla is awsome! Kinda like your naked lady. It just glistens! Toni brought it from the "holding" greenhouse, I guess I'm the first to see it, and of coars, "Sold"! lol.. It had to come home with me. The Adenium are so cute and little! caudex is about 2-3", and healthy and beautiful! So you like my nails? LOL! I'm not sure why my finger is in the pic. :) I do my own art work, and that is mellow! they get pretty wild. lol! Hi Pug! I'm not sure about other Hoya's, but will look into it. ;) need a few more myself. I love heart shapes, so Kerii had to come home with me. Mike~ Thanks. ;) The Ghost is really nice! A tall one. Yes, a little more confident. ;) Thanks so much for all you do! And to Josh, and Nancy too. ;) The Epithelantha polycephala~ can be kinda fickle/fragile in the winter, so hope I do O.K. with that one. Deburn~Thank you! Yes, unusual. You wont find any of these plants in a big box store. Hi Linda!~ I'm having to be careful so as to not go broke. ;) I probably wont go back till after christmas. They are very strong, healthy plants. They are grown in a huge greenhouse, so plenty of air, and sun. ;) it is covered in winter to protect from frost. To shop there, you shop in a greenhouse, not a building or store, it's fun! Hi Jeff! This is my first time having Albuca, so i'm anxious to see it bloom! The little flower to the Ornithogalum tennifolium, is neat, it's green, and will open and close for a few days, today 3 are open. "Haul Discout" lol.. These were actually bought over the summer, several trips, bringing a few home each time. ;) My computer acted up all summer and eventually crashed, so I couldn't post as I got them. :) I just got it back a few weeks ago. I read about the Kleinia stapeliiformis in the book you sent me. (many thanks again!) and really wanted it. :) Toni had it. LOL! Thanks again everyone! After Christmas, I'm getting out to see Miles, owner of Miles 2 go. :) He's also spoken very highly around GW, and Toni of Aird lands speaks highly of him too. :) JoJo...See MoreArid Lands unboxing photos
Comments (10)Stush, a year is a long time. My house might reach its snake plant critical mass and explode by then. Solar, yeah the labels they included are nice. And I'm glad they sent them because I would have had to look up all the plants again otherwise. Bougainvillea, I like that one, too. I hope the pup grows for me. Woodnative, why? Is masoniana like the Burmese Python of snake plants? Like it's all small and cute when you buy it, but next thing you know it's 14 feet long and eating the children? If so, I look forward to seeing this....See MoreArid Lands - airmail spoons
Comments (13)Thank you for posting photos of what you received. I have been looking at Arid Lands for some time now and plan to order some plants from them in another couple of months. (It's just too hot in So. Florida now to be receiving and repotting mail order plants.) Your photos verified for me that they do know what they're doing. I will definitely be one of their future customers....See MoreMentha (East TN, Zone 6B-7A)
