Plant Auction Next Week!

[Erik Olson <erik@thekrib.com>]

Hi GSAS-freaks,

I just got finished unloading the shipment of plants for next Tuesday's
auction, which came in the mail today.  Got em all crammed into a 55 for
the week (whew, barely fit!), so I can tell you some of the highlights:

Cryptocornes!  acorus, usteriana, lutea, and wendtii.  Never heard of the
first two before...supposedly rare. Have to see if they're in the ID books.

Anubias nana, barteri, and "Congo", a new variety.  Hmm...

Swords galore, including some red melon swords, rubin swords, and a few
large show specimens.

Perhaps the most bizarre thing I've ever seen is POTTED java moss!  Words
do not do this justice.

Anyway, that's about half of the goods.  In addition, a few members will
be bringing their own cuttings to sell (yes, that means YOU), so there'll
no doubt be even more surprises Tuesday.  Hope to see you there!

  When: Tuesday February 13th, 7:00 PM (viewing) 7:30 (bidding starts)
 Where: The Seattle Aquarium, Pier 59, upstairs

PS: If you are willing to help run, bag, or book-keep for the evening,
please reply to me personally.  Thanks!  - Erik
