Sensory overload in the brom and tillandsia tents... the first time I went I was stammering trying to take it all in. I didn't go this year but I've been to the sale in the past and bought two of the prettiest neos I have... for $3. It's a hard thing to resist. Never knew squirrels eat tillandsia... hmmm... one more irritation from those pesky critters. <br /><br />Glad you got to go and have fun with all the other gardeners excited about plants. I probably won't be going to the USF sale... have babysitting duty all weekend and I've been spending all my allotted $$$ since January for the big project in the front garden. Have fun there... you should find some good natives.<br />MeemsMeemshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16341998120938921741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642414018943766152.post-87467324370605064902011-04-05T20:10:58.824-04:002011-04-05T20:10:58.824-04:00Daisy, NEED versus WANT is always a paradox, isn&#...Daisy, NEED versus WANT is always a paradox, isn't it?<br /><br />I'll keep all informed of my ongoing war of wills over the tillandsias with the squirrels. <br /><br />Now I'm looking at those three LONELY little Orange Crush broms and wishing I'd purchased about four more for bigger impact.

It looks like so much fun, and you got some really nice broms. Sorry to hear about your tillandias...I can't believe the squirrels would eat them. I wish they'd eat the ball moss.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01106128705768954876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642414018943766152.post-47182034971051937792011-04-05T09:11:08.055-04:002011-04-05T09:11:08.055-04:00I LOVE Tropiflora!

I have had squirrels eat my Tillandsias - what a bummer. I hope you have better luck with the new location.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16827546064993346598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642414018943766152.post-57851134232690422082011-04-05T09:09:38.574-04:002011-04-05T09:09:38.574-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16827546064993346598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642414018943766152.post-87539352675476849902011-04-05T08:06:18.051-04:002011-04-05T08:06:18.051-04:00Gee, maybe I was the nice lady who gave you the ca...Gee, maybe I was the nice lady who gave you the cart. I ♥ Tropiflora. I can go there anytime and wander around the grounds. The plant sales are great...you can get some great plants at reduced prices and they bring in some good venders. My problem is that I wish I had a BIG budget when I go.SiestaSisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09810517627451623408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8642414018943766152.post-20940232000417229272011-04-05T06:32:13.836-04:002011-04-05T06:32:13.836-04:00"Even though I really don't NEED many mor..."Even though I really don't NEED many more plants..."<br />It's hard to think along these lines when you are surrounded by so much potential! Looks like a fun time!<br />I wish I could go to the USF plant sale! Hope you post about it!daisy ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06129079277073067462noreply@blogger.com
