I had to bring mine back indoors because it started getting to cold then Bam!!! it gets Hot again and now today it's raining. Figure that one out, Good O'l California weather for yah.

Greg

Lovely!

Wow Stush, that's a fantastic find! I think Hubby and I need to move to Pennsylvania... just so I can find Sans like you do!

Planto

Yes, terrific find, I'm a bit jealous from afar; I'm especially fond of the green & white, Good for you!!

Stush, You have the best luck! Nice plants.
Barb

Thanks all. I can give them out come spring when I know they will have a better root system. I do have enought right now and couldn't pass a deal like that. I have two Gold Hahnii and I would love to have a few more. These are really hard to find. I love the ones posted with the white/green.

Greg, good to hear from you. Our weather is on the cold side now and all is brought in the house.

Just came across this Stush. That is a GREAT find and GREAT DEAL!! Glad you saw that!

I like that Sans. EA doesn't show one like that on their website.

Stush

beautiful Bantel's. I went to Lowes today. They have the same Bantel's in hydro for $14.99 like one clump 3-4 small leaves. I didn't get them, too expensive for me. Congrats!

Inna,
I got my Bantels at a local Lowes (Atlanta, Ga. suburb) a few months ago. It was just like you described in a glass cube with the hydro stones. It was about ten dollars. I wanted it planted in soil, when re-potting I found that there were three plants and they were tightly fastened together with a rubber band. I am really glad that I dug it up. I think I rescued it from a choking death. ha!

Inna,
Keep checking in. They may go on clearance. Also waiting may find them rotting. These like a dryer soil during winter rest. I have told the store personnel many times not to water their sans. Every time I go I find them soaking in water.

I think I'll pass unless i see Bantel's in pot like yours Stush.

Inna

Ok, make a list who wants one. I was going to send Karen one. Who else?
Stush

Stush

is it earlier Christmas? Count me in of course. You are very generous person!

Thanks
Inna

Stush,
Oh, oh, oh! Can I have one please? Hubby says I don't have anymore room (scoots someone over just a hair). Now I do! Thanks so much Stush!

Planto

Stush,
Nevermind, I won't be needing one afterall. To my surprise (I'm still in shock), I found a Bantel's Sensation today at Lowes! Please give the one I requested to another Sans maniac. Thanks!

Planto

You want them now? Or in spring? I have them in a warm 55 gallon fish tank. Using the lights that came with the tank. I got rid of my fish this past September. Also, Karen, I lost your email and don't have your address.

I think they would be just fine in your fish tank. I don't think I have a bright spot for them. i would be really upset if I lose Bantels in winter considering they are fussy about light and warmth. lets do it in Spring.

Thanks so much
Inna

Hey Stush,

Thanks for the thought, but could I pls. wait 'til Spring? Two nights ago I came home from a plant meeting w/ an armload of Sans, plants I'm fostering for the group. Am out of room, seriously.

As it is am out of clay pots, btwn the Sans, the larger Hoyas.

Interesting that you do the warm fish tank Stush, some folks at Hoya forum do the same for rooting their Hoya cuttings.

Karen, Fish was too hard to keep. With water changes and filters and food. Now, just lights that I would want on anyway by my chair for reading. It is a lot easier to care for. Wish I thought of this before.
