Re: [GSAS-Member] Last call for HAP award

I DON'T want to know about hygro polysperma ... I've got 2 varieties, and it is 
my fall-back "let's brighten up the background or dark corner" plant.

  Hi Anita,

  Plants are definitely welcome at the general auction.  The usual rules 
  apply of no more than 20 lots per seller.  In addition, speaking for the 
  auctioneers, we'd request that folks not bring 20 lots of the same item. 
  As we try to give preference to the pink-labeled member items, it gets 
  very difficult to auction them off after the fifth lot!

  I won't address the banned plants issue.  I should really be a better role 
  model, I suppose, but I still keep Hygro polysperma!

     - Erik

The last package will either go to the next HAP poster or be put in the auction.
