As requested a better shot of the large maughani from Mr Kobayashi. Will be a fantastic plant once it plumps up a bit

that Mr Kobayashi seems to be popular. he must sell a fair few plants to make the trip worthwhile

Re: Elk 2008 part 2
Yes he produces some really nice plants. He only sells what he can manage to bring in his luggage maybe 30 plants, but nothing less than £25. So he took maybe a £1000 in about 10 minutes.

Re: Elk 2008 part 2
At 25 quid a plant, I'm sure the postage from Japan is the least of your worries 
What are the pots, Bill? 2" round? I see nobody else is interested, but despite having more pots than Philip Barker I still never seem to have quite the right size for repotting that special plant

Presume you mean the 500 for 5 euros Iann I haven't measured them but think they are a little under 2", maybe 40mm.
