I'll add the one and only pic I took at Greg's garden. This is him either explaining the history of his garden or on how to manhandle me off his property.

It looks like everyone had a good time. How many people showed up? I love the shot around the pool in post #35. Are you sure this was in Cali? And was there some interesting palms for the auction?

We had a nice crowd, though not a barn-burning record- breaker.

Nothing amazing at the auction, there usually isn't.

That pool is amazing . . . .

I saw 2 things I was interested in at the auction.

An "elephant apple", http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dillenia_indica that went for 30$ in a 3 gal pot.

And a very nice sized 5 gal Phoenix rupicola that went for $30 also.

Somehow I'm finally getting able to curtail my purchases. :blink:
