When she finally noticed there was some one standing right in front of the plant she said is this one yours? I replied - I certainly hope so.

She took off. When Nick said he'd pass for now I left it.

Funny thing about these plant sales - you have to be there before it opens and get in line. Then run thru the area fast with a cart and snatch everything you want right away. And watch out for those little old ladies with the sharp nails. lol

What's with these little old ladies and bananas? At the grocery store they give you murderous looks when you get near the plantains and at plant sales they try to steal your naner.
bananimal..............Yes I bet we did walk right by during the AM …
Funny how that happens when your out at any type of a specialty sale there is a dedicated group of hard core shoppers who charge forward to get the prize! I usually feel like if I'm suppose to get it I will.. Next time I go to another show, I think Ill try to get there as the doors open! Ill keep a keen eye out for the Ladies with stock carts in their hands
