Thanks, but no thanks - even if I lived next door.

AND you have to dig them up yourself...

I would think that $300 for the size of those Yuccas and some of the others wouldnt be so bad, good luck digging them out tho.

As for the other one, $3000 for a cactus collection that we cant see, maybe a bit over the usual charging price haha.

there was a huge garden listed some months ago in Victoria going for several thousand and removal was at the purchases cost. beautiful collection. makes me realise how good our lot was , getting it for free except for the location. time and sweat, and a few spikes .one in Bendigo was listed at 1100 for one plant and i heard that it actually sold for more locally to a landscaper and then they broke it in the removal process. it was a beauty! but one plant! we didnt get a pic before it was removed but I found the plant as a photo on the internet.

ours also was sight unseen. the fact that he had so many and they were labelled made me believe it was worth the risk .

Im guessing you sold a big collection then Gracie?

Is that the one we were talking about a few days ago? I cant believe they broke it, it was a great plant, poor thing.
