Sylvia, tree mail the ATP person and verify; most just want postage because it is in the spirit of sharing...When something is for sale, the owner will usually say so.

I know sorry they've already been separated (mostly) here is a photo of where they live now!

They're in the hallway for now, but beginning soon (weather permitting) they're going to be vertical on an outside wall, hanging one above the other creating a skinny 4.5 foot box of succulents! Now isn't that worth splitting them up for! nodding

Bev I haven't done a thing yet but collect stuff as I go along. I will take a picture of the pot I got every thing just laying. I went to Loews last week and I bought a pot of Hen and Chicks. Its so cute and has so many little chicks growing a around it. I had a ball at Loews. Unlike HD, they put all the broken plants in the back on a Markdown rack. Oh Mercy its a gardener' paradise! I hope my God Son come over and plant them for me. I suffer with Vertigo, I cant hold my head down too long or I will keel right over! I took another plant from a friend, I think its an Agave. I think all my stuff is too big for the holes in that . I will show you pictures tomorrow Smiling .
