    Great pictures of some very striking plants!

    When people show their Sans do they show them in the pots they grow them in or do they repot them? Perhaps those pots are cache pots? Just curious because some of the pots look to be larger than what I would think they would be growing in. They are all very beautifully displayed.

    Thanks for sharing your photos!

    Yes, Jim...Most of Sans growers here grow their plants in those nice containers.

    Thanks for posting these pictures, those are some spectacular plants! I would love to move to Thailand, or at least travel around there someday. Why is it that it appears to be the land of unique cultivars, plentiful hybrids, and rare species when it comes to plants such as Euphorbia milli, Aglaonemas, Adeniums, Crotons, and apparently, Sansevierias as well. Am I missing anything?

    Why is it that nurseries in Thailand seem to always produce the coolest plants and come up with all these crazy looking cultivars, interesting hybrids, and rare mutations? Is it something in the water they drink? lol

    this was a very old post - but i am glad to see it.
    very unusual plants. i wonder are these available anywhere in US?
    i especially like s.rhodesiana 'koko', 'samurai' and suffruticosa.
    but all of them are simply stunning!

    wow, that's weird. just 2 days ago pics WERE showing.
    what is even MORE weird, is that i just pulled them on google, they are visible. and it shows gw forums as source. but when you go to view page - they don't load.???
    so it's GW that's somehow blocks them?
