I seen there is some joining buying project is going on... May I join too...

Else, may be we can buy difference sp. and exchange it later. And I believe that there is more then 1 plant in a pot, right

Hi,

Went there this morning, this year the event is much better than last time.
Visited the YG Park boot, lots of neps (albo, hockeriana, sanguinea, pilosa...etc) and sara, didnt see any VFT.. may be sold out.. sara oso left those big 1 (2-3ft)... probably they will refill the plants that sold.
Didn't remember all the prices but N.pilosa is abt RM100+, s.flava (big) RM60+
Tillandsia mostly are just RM15.. expensive one are the XXL size RM120.

ps: go as early as possible.. very crowed.

Hi Boon Leng, glad that you brought along your camera but unfortynately didn't able to take YG Park's booth.
Wow, the VFTs all gone? And the small sarra plants too ? That's fast! I believe they will get some for replacement.
Weekday is crowded, I can't imagine during weekend, guys, be prepared.
Tarence, the small plant is selling at RM18 to RM22 only. Quickly grab as many as you can.

You guys are "evil". Now I can't sleep at night. Can't wait to go now. One more day... one more day... one more day...

Boonleng,

Yopu said the CP tank was done up by students. Are they from a society or which school are they from? Interesting. Would be great to meet up with them.

thx TS...i`ll grab them with both hands & perhaps feet too. heheh.

Casey : a bit scary to separate some sarracenias even tho there might be multiple plants in each pot. sometimes when we separate too early or too late in their genetic `season`, it might trigger dormancy or just die off. This applies for the more `rare` and unusual varieties. The common ones are more heat tolerant. But yes, if it`s too expensive, we have to buy diff types each then trade off. Are you going ?

Agree with you tarence. Last time, after I separte my sarra, most of them are dormancy. Luckily all of them recovered from it. It is out of topic.

Suppose will go there by Saturday afternoon with my wife.
