Thanks Rachel! Yes that place is a dream! I have very little space so I can't buy too many right now. It was torture picking only two. He has dozens and dozens of colors. Oh and peach is one of my favorite colors so I hope it is gorgeous too!

Candice,

I'll be down the 5th to pick up this one and a few others.

Lonnie

HI Candice I'm glad I don't live in Houston I would have to go back to work that place would keep me broke very nice plant

roger

Lonnie, oh yeah. I didn't realize he got so many shipments. He got a new one set out in May and told me he had more new ones coming in!

I hope you snag yellow gift. It's really neat. I almost got Thong Suk Jai but I had to choose one. They are both yellow reds.

He had one Orange juice. I've wanted an orange color very badly. It was in bloom and looked different than expected. It was a single with swirls of tropical colors but not very orange. It was very pretty though.

I wish I could have looked longer, but it felt like a sauna out there and mosquitoes were eating me up! I can't wait for the fall!

Make sure and post what you get!

Roger, Most definitely! Good thing though, his prices are way cheaper than others, so that helps our habit! Haha.

Looks like I may have to make a trip to Houston I have never been where they sell adeniums our H.P lowes or wal mart don't sell the only nursery that sells them they buy from me and that don't help me

roger

Roger, where do you live? You definitely should!

There is another nursery that sells them in southern Houston as well. But they don't focus on them. They carry everything. They only get a few types of grafts per year. Nature's grower is the only one I've seen that has such an emphasis on Adenium. He has thousands, along with crown of thorns, plumeria, and others. It's pretty crazy.

We need to have a big meet up one day close to that nursery, all the people in driving distance. That would be fun!

Hi Candice I live in San Angelo Tex. About 7 hrs from Houston. Been thinking of going to Houston just a long trip I would love to meet everone there someday

roger

My wife and I will be there the morning of 7/5. He usually gets three shipments each year. After he pots them up and makes sure they are rooted (about 3-6 weeks) he places them for sale. Each shipment is ready in May, June, and either August or September. You might have guessed by now, I have been purchasing from Chaya for several years now.

Candice, He already has a Yellow Gift set aside for me. I purchased Thong Suk Jai in May. See below.

Lonnie

Lonnie, oh my gosh that is so beautiful! Is that your photo? Would you say that is orange or yellow? I'm seeing an orange in this picture. If that's the case, I need it!

Does he tell you what he has coming or it's always a surprise?

It is an yellow/orange/red color. It is my photo, and yes he usually tells me what

he has with each shipment.

Roger, its worth the trip! My drive from DFW is four hours.

This is just one of his green houses.

Lonnie

HI Candice can you tell me about what the cost is don't need to drive to Houston spend $100.00 on gas and find out the plants are $40.00 to $50.00 ea. Thank you

roger

He charged me only $15 per plant! Insanely cheap.

I think I can live with that real cheap I guess my wife& I will have to make a trip will let you know when. maybe we can meet .

roger

$15 each, and he has a lot of seedlings that are cheaper. There isn't anything special about his setup, and he's not like the big box stores. He is plan and simple, but great prices. He also has a lot of crown of thorns.

Lonnie

Here are a few he may still have in stock from May and June.

I saw all but the Dang Bailey last week. But he may have some in the back.

I would like to get the yellow gift have the others. Will just wait untell sept. I think to much of a trip for one plant I don't guess he will ship?

roger

He also had many more than the ones above^ I wrote down some when I was there so I could look up pictures (he has pictures on tags but many were sun faded).

Here are some:

Black swan , black balloon, red wine, golden star, thong suk jai, Swan and dragon, good night, Pon sowan, thong yod, kulubdam, Moung jinda, Moung monkoi, yellow allamanda, good morning, Snow White, scarlet gold, black border,

and there were many more. I just didn't write the ones down that I could see the picture or knew already.

Not sure sbout shipping.

Thanks Candice I'm still thinking about coming will let you know soon

roger

September would probably be cooler at least! Well... maybe not til October.

Candice...it is BEAUTIFUL!!!
