I sure did Lesley.  Pocket book has moths flying out now, nothing else.  But these nurseries have such wonderful plants, and the local group stall was very good too.

Wonderful pictures of those beautiful plants, Olga. I love the macrosepalum and the 'Baked Milk', I had never heard about that cultivar before.
