I think so and they contaminated them with spray paint in place called Aalsmeer (?).

They had some painted one at Home Depot today. The center was left natural but he out leaves were painted pink. It made me mad. I couldn't understand why someone would abuse a plant like that

I hate it when they glue those fake blooms on cactus plants too. YUCK. It just makes me want to scream at whoever did it!

Okay Connie, where did you get those? This thread just caused me to hold my breath. What gorgeous plants.
I may have to go to Lowes and HD tomorrow on my way to Portland. Whistling

Thumbs down Thumbs down on the painted ones. Glare

But I sure like that Echeveria nodulosa. Wonder if it is easy to carry through winter indoors?

Don't concern yourself with payment, Lynn. I'll just trade you something for it. I just hope I don't kill it before it reaches your loving arms!

Lynn, you asked about iris size, BEFORE all the crazies showed off their hauls. All I can say is thank goodness we don't have a Lowes yet!

Miniature Dwarf Bearded (MDB's) are less than 8" and Standard Dwarf Bearded (SDB) are 8-16. Here's some pics: first of a MDB then a SDB

Well I probably should try to make it before the September sale. You will need to give me some navigation info to find your place.
