Hello there good people. A number of people have asked about the Agricultural fair, and if I would be there. I will along with 'the team' and some 6-8,000 topical plants. There will be an advertisement in the Avis for Sunday/Monday, and again on Wednesday.

I have been frustrated in the past as the prices are generally spiked and it was hard to purchase what I had wanted. I plan not to do that.

-Less than one gallon plants are still $3.00, Gallons: $6.00, 400 ml pots 9.00, etc. No plants will be over $20, unless they are rare of imported for this event. Examples are orchids, that will be just in from Hawaii and in bloom. They will be $24, and the some 50+ bromeliads will range from $7.50-$30, depending on scarcity, age and type. I have been collecting them from around the world for the past year.

We will be located at the BACK of the indoor plant arena, so if my back or legs go, I can quickly get to a van to lie down.

I am so excited, as it is a testament of improved physical health post-accident that I finally know that I can do it with the help of friends. We will have everything from herbs and small flowering plants to trees, like senna alata (the tree you see around St. Croix with the spikes of yellow flowers in the winter, freshly cut rhyzomes of canna, various banana and plantain, The Queen Emma Lilly (truly a queen!). All splits will be $5

Thanks in large to you whom have helped me with this first year of "home nurseryhood", and this may set us up for the dream nursery and botanical garden a few miles East of C'sted. Hmmmmm. I looks like it could happen!

Thank you again, and I hope to see you there,

Dan G, Nursery

PS: We will post 'Dan G., Nursery" as well as be perhpas the only booth that posts their prices.
