    Photo? Is this the one on Ebay? I would have bid on that if it were not so cold here now!! Keep it going and hope you have pups in the future to share (hint hint LOL!). Once again photo??

    Hi Chris...! Sorry, I thought I clicked on the pic... anyway, yes, it was the one from eBay... I was doubtful about buying it because I thought it was a fake or a mislabeled Sans, but it’s absolutely beautiful! I’m so excited!

    Thanks Laura! that’s why I check ebay every single day, because you never know what you might find... good luck!

    Chris, I potted this up today, and it does have the beginnings of a pup underground... I’ll be sending it your way as soon as it gets big enough...! Have a great Christmas!

    Hi Chris! If you’re not into waiting too long, I wanted to let you know that they just put the Var Subspicata on eBay again. Good price and low shipping...

    $12.99 plus $4.99 shipping (I think) sounds good but it's too cold here to buy plants this time of year. So maybe by spring or early summer I'll check back. Or, maybe some one here will have pups! I'm in no big hurry. Now a solid gold hahnii!!!!!

    Stush! Mine was just delivered and it was fine; I’m in Massachusetts, freezing and snowy... anyway, have a great Christmas! BTW, they also ha$ a solid gold Hahnii...

    Thanks Mary. That $ sign in 'has' is because it is expensive. Home Depot had them for sale for around $4 but not in my area. Person who told me went back to buy me one (or all) and they were sold out never to get more in. With my luck, I'd probably kill it. I know they are the most hardest of all to grow. The person who did purchase it promised me the first pup. I told them not to cut it up and be thankful it will produce pups.

    Mary- Just got back to this! I am a patient man so I will wait of an available pup! : )

    As Stush said it is just too cold to buy plants this next week or so. I think the high is going to be in the 20s and lows less than 10 F. Sigh. Even with a heat pack I would be afraid damage would be done at those temps. I can't wait until Spring!! Hope everyone had a nice holiday!!

    Thanks Chris. I had a very wondrous Christmas with family. Can't wait for a prosperous New Year's. One with many new and exciting plants!

    Did this survive the winter ok? It has been a LONG winter but there is promise of longer days and warmer weather coming soon!

  • 8 years ago

    Hi, thanks for asking! It did survive the Winter nicely, just a couple of leaves curled up a bit. I did lose a bunch of my other favorites though... It’s my own fault though, I lost my mom in February and I’ve been so depressed that I have totally neglected all my green babies... I just can’t motivate myself to care for them like I always did...

    Very sorry! Best wishes to you and I hope with time the pain will lessen and you will find Peace in memories of her and what was/is for you.

    Thank you so much my friend!

    Mary, My heart goes out to you. I lost both my parents and now some of my siblings are in cancers' grip. Just lost my brother in law. Depression and pain is so real. Time is a great healer. My faith in Jesus was all I needed to help me.

    Chris, Are you sure winter is gone? I think we might some more snow yet.

    Anything variegated I love. Glad it survived the winter.

  • 8 years ago

    Thanks so much Stush... the pain is overwhelming, but I know and hope time will help it heal.

    You’re right, this Winter just doesn’t want to go away...

    All my Hahnii did great this Winter, I guess they liked the neglect..., but I lost a lot of my favorites like: Midnight Shine, Silver Laurentii, Gold Flame, Eve, Siam Silver, and one of my Whitneys... so sad!
