I am aware of Oasis Nursery in Carlsbad, and I am also aware of the plants that Martin posted about on the Plants For Sale forum. I'm looking for plants with about 6-10 feet (2-3 meters) of clean trunk. Thanks in advance.

Wow, that'll be amazing Justin! You should have another BBQ to celebrate when you get it in. Plus I want some more of that electric blue kool-aide you made. :drool:

Did someone snatch up the one at Gary Wood's place? I have a picture a few years old and it looks like 7 feet of trunk.

Thanks Bob. Coincidentally (before you responded), I had already scheduled to be there tomorrow morning to look at them.

Justin,

What is your price range?

I may need to bargain for you on an exceptionally large one up here.

Thanks,

JC
