Default Re: My Little SDC Still growing

OK -Yes I know where that is, You are very enterprising to grow nanners, up there. Now, you say you want to get some coconuts. I was in Florida, several weeks ago, at a nursery trade show. A person there, was selling sprouted coconuts for US $1.75 (most of these people would rather sell their exhibit, cheap, at the end of the show,rather than truck it back to their place.)
I can give you the name and address, if you want, but these people are wholesale growers, and I don't know what their minimum sale would be. I, also, don't know what the restrictions are about shipping to Canada. I will be going back, to another show, in Florida, in January. I expect that the same person will be there, and if you want, I'll pick up whatever you want and send it to you. ( you have to ascertain if this is legal, and what paperwork is required. Sometimes, you can be charged from US $25 to 50 for a ascertain certificate, which would not be good for one plant.)
