I sometimes have babies to trade, but right now things are just generally hectic LOL. I'm pretty sure The Violet Gallery in PA has both of them... http://www.violetgallery.com/

Nope, just checked their catalog, shucks. But they do have an excellent selection of trailers, including some other girl leafed ones. I've shopped there in person rather than by mail; they have nice plants.

Well, I'll look around and see if I can't find it for sale somewhere, but if you decide you want to trade leaves or baby plants later on, I am massing quite a collection so far, lol...

It only started with a few a month or two ago, and now they are taking over!, lol...

Here is my window baby starter:

unfortunately one of my favorites came without a tag, but I love it, anyway. Out of all those, I don't have any trailers, though. That is my next quest. :0)

That ramblin reflections is a real beauty!

Thanks for the article!

You are really going to town, there! That pink leafed "noid" is beautiful. I need to get some more leaves down... I keep finding other distractions, LOL, but I want to start rebuilding my collection this year. :-)
