Ramble Crotons?

Hi Ray,
We'll have some crotons along with our other stuff and Jose Lopez wiill be selling some crotons too. We'll be selling with the Tropical Fern & Exotic Plant Society and will be located in the Palmatum under the royal poinciana. Will you be coming over?

We'll be bringing many crotons like last year. Also, because there's no official Palm Society Sale anymore, I will be bringing palms as well and bromeliads. And other tropical goodies......

Applause
Cameo
Capt. Gilbert Cutler
Caribbean Star
Columbia
Columbiana
Compte de Castlaine
Coppinger hyb.
Diane
Dolores
Duncan Macaw

Halloween
Herring Bone
Little Chief
Mackenzie
Madam Butterfly (two types)
Pink Davis
Pretty Bird
Sailor's Delight
Sybil Griffen
Tamara
Tiger Eye
Tortoise
Trinidad Interrupted Leaf
Twist and Turn

Remember the Ramble is Fri. - Sun. (Nov. 9 - 11) The gates open to FTBG members at 9:00 and at 9:30 to others. Hope to see you there.
 
Somebody...... Anybody???????? "Trinidad Interrupted Leaf" pics please :p


It's picture 46 in Jose Lopez's album in the Members section. Faster to direct you to that than to go take a picture. We have it from two sources - Trinidad and Hawaii but no name unfortunately.
 
I pulled some more crotons this morning for the Ramble:

Embassy
Stained Glass
Flamingo
Bimbo
Mosiac
Robert Halgrim
Eleanor Fischler
Delicatissima
 
Jeff, you always brighten up the ramble with all those colorfull crotons.Looking forward to seeing the sale. Due to missing both weekends of your extravaganza because of work.
 
I'm heading there this morning. I'll try to get some pictures to post. ;)

Forgot my camera on the dining room table yesterday - today I did not. Here we go ...

First, Louis Dupuy

If you enjoy rare or unusual Staghorn Ferns - there were some available as pups. The pups kinda look the same. Here is a list of available species and prices one plant vendor had available for sale.

I'm a sucker for the interrupted leaf type cultivars. This is a very uncommonly found Halloween. The plant is extremely healthy but could use a bit more sun exposure to bring out the orange colors. ;)
