Hello, does anyone know where to get some good pings? Hoping to make a trade with Apollyon for some pings, but I haven't had a ping in a long time. Know anywhere to get some? Thanks!

I’ve gotten great pings from California Carnivores. CC has quite the variety and even some less common ones available right now. Also I’ve always been pleased with mine from Curious Plant.

I usually look at Cascade Carnivores first. Good pings, huge selection.

Lees Botanical Garden on Facebook has some, and at pretty good prices.
They have a minimum ($15 I think, plus shipping that you have to calculate yourself), but you could get a few different varieties for the price that most places charge for one or two.
However, be careful. I've seen posts of people that have ordered from him and went overboard. He has good plants, but, due to the great prices, they received so many plants that they had to scramble to find materials and room for them all. Self control is essential with them.

@ChefDean, you have to bring up that self control thing again. Sheesh! For what it is worth, I just placed an order for a bunch of sarrs from him and they looked great. Be prepared for some freebies in the box also. Packaging was a little shoddy but it was a short trip from FL to GA when I got them, and they were dormant. I'm not sure of packaging if you get anything Tropical. He is also very responsive to e-mail if you have any questions.

I didn't drop any names, you just outed yourself.

One choice is to buy some of Apollyon’s awesome pings. He has some quality plants !
