Has anyone ever heard of this one, or more notably, Phil Faulisi? After reading about Phil, I thought it would be interesting to see if anyone here had ever met him.

From what I have read he will not sell to the general public. I sure wish he would as he seems to have a way with Sarrs. I am going to see about getting some of those seeds.

Thanks for listening,

I wouldn't mind a pure Saurus, but I have a pretty good looking Saurus x Adrian Slack.

"They" also say Bigfoot is fake, UFO's are real, but aliens are fake (or is it the other way around?), the Loch Ness Monster is a dinosaur that survived the meteor, and "they" were able to save JFK's brain and transplant it into a very special chimp. That chimp is kept in the basement of CIA headquarters in Langley, and is introduced to the President on his first day in office.
There's going to be more than three because they divide, they're just not commonly offered up for sale. But, also, most people don't want to drop $600 - $900 on a single Sarracenia.

American Pitcher Plant had one for sale. I think they were asking $400.

Too bad they're now closed. Hopefully Trexler kept a core of goodies to start back up after school..

I don't know if you saw on Facebook, he was doing a random bulk sale of everything he had, including much of his personal collection. I was actually going to drop the money on the Saurus but it sold before I could. So I bought several others instead.

Honestly, it was hard to resist. There was a minimum order of 5 plants and I had already ordered 7 from him with his closeouts. I would have loved to have been able to get one of his personal 6" pots. It was a blind grab bag, but it would have been spectacular.
