Wanted : Alocasias, Colocasias and Xanthosmas
« on: June 18, 2011, 11:12:07 AM »
I want to buy or trade for EEs. If any one knows of sources to buy EEs please let me know. I have a few varieties to trade. I also have some waterlilies I can trade for EEs.

Recently learned of these two sites:

http://www.agristarts.com/htm/main_pages/colocasia_main.htm

Great info on those plants and the different varieties. I have not tried to order from them yet though.

* my understanding is that the plants from that site are kinda small though, just so you know. They also sell on ebay and their reviews were mixed.

Plants were decent sized & fast shipping.  Unfortunately he shipped right before a holiday weekend so the plants sat in a box for 6 days.  They are slowly recovering & he said he'd extend the warranty.

There is never enough room for all of the water lilies that I want ;-)

I bought 4 from wellspring gardens. Good price, well packed, fast shipping to Louisiana. Plants look healthy, I'll see in a couple of weeks.
