The description in the ad is definitely about the Thousand Fingers. The inclusion of the "AE AE" in the title, I believe, is just to elicit interest rather than mislead. The English knowledge of the writer is noticeably labored. I think that he is merely alluding to the scarcity of his plant is similar to the Ae-Ae. Unfortunately, I will admit that many people will be mislead by this ad. I hope that our members will take heed.

Thanks for your post!

Yeah, beware of Ebay auctions. I've gotten some nice plants off there, but you have to be careful about what you bid on. Read everything carefully and don't be fooled by gimmicks, etc. The picture on there is an actual picture, but these results are DEFINITELY NOT TYPICAL. I won't tell you not to buy plants off Ebay, cause as I said before, I've gotten some nice ones there for good prices....but BUYER BEWARE!

I once bought from this loser. Stay away! Terrible service and my variegated musa arrived a lump of mush after spending a month in a box. He never replied to me. Ebay is not a bad place to buy plants from good sellers.
