Message on behalf of Bill Darbon:

DISPOSAL OF PLANTS FROM THE COLLECTION OF DAVID OFFORD

Arrangements are being made to sell the private collection of David Offord (sadly due to personal circumstances David is unable to continue to maintain his collection).
The collection includes many cacti & succulent plants from his 40 years of collecting, Including Aloes, Agaves, Gasterias, Lithops, Gymnoocalyciums and some specimen cacti. There will be around 300 lots, some of Mixed Cacti & Succulents in trays.

The collection will be sold by private auction on Sunday 9th October. The auction will be held in the Rayleigh area SS6.
Viewing from 1000 hrs. auction commences 1100 hrs.
There is only street parking near to the premises SO PLEASE PARK SENSIBLY to avoid any clash with the neighbours or obstruction of driveways.

ALL LOTS BOUGHT MUST BE PAID FOR ON THE DAY and removed by the successful purchaser, unless other arrangements are made.
A scheduled collection of sold items will be organised at the end of the sale.
ALL plants will be sold as seen - some of the names listed may not be botanically correct.

Payment - Cash is preferred but cheques and bank transfer will also be accepted.

Light refreshments will be available and toilet facilities on request. Please bring you own chair if required

Please register your interest when full details of the sale arrangements including a copy of the list of plants will be supplied.
