Alrighty people...  I want some gossip.  Who got what?

I myself picked up a nice Chamaedorea tepejilote double...  Hopefully it will be a female to mate with the palm I already have!

[palmislandRandy]

I snagged a Foxy lady , Calyptronoma rivalis, Dypsis caesa,  vesteria (orange) & a Coccothrinax hiorami Even bought a cycad & some fert!

A quick shot of the entrance/holding/cashier area after loading up Saturday morning. I stopped back on Sunday morning, to grab a few more & there was only a few browsers ???

But, I would say Saturday was fairly busy, at least while I was there...  Vendors were doing alot of running back and forth from trucks to displays restocking.

Randy,

    Thanks for the picture of the sale's area. It really is a nice look.

I didn't notice I had my camera until I was pulling away as it was pretty busy on Saturday. I went back Sunday morning to pick up a few I missed, and was suprised at the lack of people! On Saturday I did notice some forum members I'd seen on previous posts (sorry I didn't have time to chat) I didn't want to upstage Ryan, next time I'll take more photos.

I was unable to attend Sunday - had to go to New Jersey on business - but we had a really good sale overall. Since we take credit/debit cards now, people can buy a lot more stuff!

While the number of vendors was down, the ones there did very well. We were all a little worried because of the state of the economy but people were spending money. Yeah! I picked up a couple of new palms and will have them planted this week. Hopefully I can get some pictures here of all the changes I've made in my yard this year.
