That tree is still avaiable by the way. $6500. They have a few, so if you hurry you can buy and plant a Mexican Grass Tree forest! :) pepper23 KC Metro area, MO (Zone 5b)August 07, 2006 06:25 PM

$6500 or 65.00? Had to ask because I can't see anyone paying 6500 for a tree. palmbob Tarzana, CA (Zone 9b)August 07, 2006 08:48 PM

There are a lot of 'collectable' plants here in So Cal that are much more expensive than that, believe it or not. m_crowther Temecula, CANovember 14, 2006 12:55 PM

What is the contact info for this plant? I am in Temecula, not far from Escondido. I would love to see it in person.
