glad you took it the right way.

with my crew I will be lucky to make it by noon.

since this post is no secret, well I had to have my fun. I put it thru the higher up channels and it looks like I may be there. look for a THOSE GUYS t-shirt. i will run if you got something in your hand. I am going to go there and look for something I haven't got. maybe something besides bananas? we'll see. may be a Burmese blue?

thought this site may have gone down because of a kernana implosion.

Haha I was wondering why the site was down for me too. It was messing with my OCD of checking this site 10 times a day

I hope to be able to bring several. I will have some little Fe’i too and Pisang Ceylon and some others. Last year, I went home with a Pitogo which was a surprise. The blue Java’s went quick, but I think I still had one by noon. I’m happy to hold one until 11 if you really want one. Sorry I don’t have time to take pictures/count leaves. Price will depend on size, but most of the bananas I bring I sell for $25-40 (with $40 being something rare). Don brought a Burmese Blue for someone last year

there ya go kernaner

for a Burmese blue I would walk there. after 19,000 seeds. but I will be driving my truck. will be going down with friends and staying with some more friends in tampa. baring a broken leg or other earth shattering circumstances I will be there. pitogo? that would be a yes among others. and driving my truck down, I don't have to wait for people to get moving. meet em there .....looking forward to it.

That would be great if you can hold one for me. I'd like to buy 2 but I don't think I can swing 2 of them if they are $40 a piece. I guess I'll see what you have there on the 20th. Thanks.

I aint rich neither, but one blue java taken care of will lead to others. these people have to carry them in and if they don't sell carry them out, then take care of them till they do sell. I am going there to have a good time. little adventure. might learn something and come away with nothing. but I intend to have a good time doin it.

I too am patiently awaiting a Blue Java (thanks Ty) but I am curious what is this event?

Kanana

Yeah I am on a waiting list from ty as well but I never heard when he's getting more in. I'll probably buy from him as well when his do come in and get one from this plant sale on May 20th too.

Manatee Rare Fruit Council: Fruit Tree Sale has more info. It’s a great event - Don from Going Bananas is usually there as well as around 20 other vendors. We are on the back left inside corner.

Earlier in this thread I started (post #15 to be exact) I was sort of joking about a Black Friday scenario of people waiting over night in a line to get in the doors first. Well this morning I checked the website, and they have this picture on their website:



Is this what I can expect before the doors open? If this is the case then I'm not too sure it's worth it for one Blue Java, especially if it's going to be $40 for maybe a 12" plant at that.

Looks like a longer line than the Trump rally in Sarasota November 28th 2015.

gotta wonder about parking.

Beam, once I saw it on the map, I remembered I was at that place before but it was for the Bradenton gun show they have a few times a year. Parking lot is huge so shouldn't have a problem finding a parking spot. I can't imagine 22 vendors of plants filling up the place as there were like 10 aisles of gun vendors in the same place and if I had to guess I'd say there were 150-200 vendors for the gun show.
